Memorial Weekend with Girls

My brother, Jesse, came in from Corpus to spend time with mom so we decided we'd pick up the girls for some fun time.   On Friday afternoon, after picking up the girls, we went by to spend time with mom then headed home with the girls.  Friday night we played games, colored and watched movies.

Grandpa made breakfast for us as we slept late.  Then we got dressed to go swimming at the Castroville Pool.  The girls sport their new swim suits....

We repeated the evening by playing dominos, coloring and watching the movie "RV".  They loved the movie or at least Lari did since Arianna fell asleep.

Sunday morning we got up late and headed to the Egg and I for breakfast.   Dad called to let us know he was coming to pick up the girls so he met us at the restaurant.
