Mom's Day/Fishing!

This past weekend was Mother's Day/MN Fishing Opener.  We had Patrick's parents, his brother Mike and of course the "boys" (Kayden, Tyler & Tyson) at our house.  I love how excited my girls get when they know people are coming to our house.  There's always a countdown to the highly anticipated arrival of our guests, which Syd keeps track of in her head.  So early Saturday morning Patrick, Grandpa and Uncle Mike head out to the lake, while Grandma and I hung out with the kiddos.  THANK GOODNESS the weather was gorgeous!!!  As soon as the grass dried we headed outside where we spent most of the day.  We ate lunch on the deck and back down to the swing set it was.  Soon after that the fishermen were back and the kids ran to see the fish....one fish I mean....it was enough for the kiddos!  Better than nothing!!  :)  About mid afternoon Mike and the boys headed home and Patrick and Grandpa  headed out fishing again.  Sydney spent most of the evening showing Grandma her bike skills and Karsyn actually made progress on her big girl bike and went a few feet on it all on her own!  We grilled some brats for supper followed by a campfire and S'mores!!  Yummy!! 

Sunday Patrick and Grandpa did some more fishing and Grandma, the girls and I went to church.  Being we were running a bit behind and were almost the last to walk in we got to sit....yup....  Right. In. Front.  The very front of the church....which is not a good place to sit when you have a 3 year old that wouldn't sit still and is acting up.  We got Father's attention couple times...oops!!    Then it was lunch time and naptime....for everyone....except Syd!  We spent the remainder of the afternoon outisde enjoying the weather.  The fishermen skipped out on fishing even.....I was shocked!!  We ended the weekend with a fish fry and Grandpa and Grandma headed home.  What a great weekend!
