Our attempt at a Flag Cake!
This scares me a little!

What a beautiful day!! We went to church this morning and then had our 5Th Sunday services that included potluck and singing (just not at the same time!). The kids wanted to help me make a flag cake, so I let them do it...I made the cake last night and then this morning before church I let them add the strawberries and blueberries. They loved that they got to help! After church it was time to head to the pool and thankfully today, Carl was home to play with Trey. He LOVES to have someone to play with in the pool. He is getting a lot more brave when it comes to swimming without his floaties. He did this last year, but he's just remembering that he can do it again. He's even figured out how to make himself go to the bottom of the pool to retrieve dive rings :) The girls are old pros at the pool. They play all kinds of different games, and are really excited to have friends come and swim with them. Yesterday Bonnie came to swim with them and believe it or not the three of them play really well together. Bonnie is a very sweet girl, though. She always is the first to make sure no one is left out :)
We had a fish fry at my Papaw's yesterday afternoon and Carl actually got to come. We got to see lots of family that we don't get to see that often and have a nice visit. The food was really good too!
Tomorrow Carl has to work--BOO!! Maybe one of these little showers will come and he'll get off early. I think they only have 160 acres of beans left to plant, and I know they have to get it done, but I just hate it that he can't be with us. We are planning to spend the whole day at the pool and having cook outs at both lunch and dinner.
Hope you all are having a great Memorial Day Weekend!!
