Fun Memorial Day Weekend with the Fam

Helen and I made a quick trip up to MI for the memorial day weekend. She did a stellar job on the plane, on my lap, both there and back. Thank goodness for early flights, huge Elmo sticker books and small ziplock baggies full of snacks!
We had so much fun with bubbles this trip. We ran through an enormous bottle of bubbles!
J and S (above) are excellent bubble blowers.
Helen, not so much. She puts the wand right on her lips and blows, but by that point, all the bubble juice is on her face, so no bubbles. Probably not very tasty.

Dad got a new, nifty riding lawn mower - here's his first ride. Helen loved seeing Grandpa on his "go-go".
It was very warm over the weekend, but none of the local pools were opened up yet. Luckily grandma had this kiddie pool to play in. Helen and Aunt Judy enjoying spraying and splashing each other.
Helen really likes to help (as she says, "hep") out. Here she is helping grandma get all the freshly cut grass of the driveway.
More bubble playing in the street!
Grandma was so cute - she set herself off from the rest of the pack and quietly blew bubble wand after bubble wand. There's something mesmorizing about it!
The wii dance revolution in G&G's basement. That was so much fun to watch! Sadly, the three in this picture will be beaten by yours truly in the next dance competition.
Had fun playing in the sprinkler too!

Needless to say, Helen was EXHAUSTED this week. Thanks so much to everyone for traveling so much up/down to G&G's house. We can't wait to see you again!
