Memorial Day or 4th of July

This was definitely the hottest Memorial Day weekend that I could ever remember.  None of us were complaining about the sunshine or eighty degree temperatures, our bodies were just in shock as it had been such a cold, wet spring.  Even with the heat we were still able to spend the majority of our weekend outside.  Cal started his off by walking 16.8 miles around Lake Wawasee on Friday with his friends.  By the end of the day he had 40,000 steps.  We were all impressed.  He also had time to play a few rounds of golf and tennis plus go out in the boat with HM during his first three days at home.

Meg took advantage of the nice weather by playing golf for the first time in years, going on multiple walks with Nick, and watching Millie enjoy her wading pool.  Cam played several rounds of golf, worked on his tennis and hung out in his hammock.  Tonight he was finally able to catch up with a few of his classmates with a bonfire at Joey's.  Doug and I took several walks, worked in the yard, watched the birds and enjoyed nighly bonfires.  With all of us outside so much this weekend, Brett had more time in the sunshine than normal.  Today was different for him as he had to work at Bell Trace.  He didn't mind at all as they paid holiday pay to today's employees.  All in all it was a wonderful Memorial Day weekend and I was incredibly glad that Doug took Friday off to enjoy it with us.  We all had spent so much time inside during the stay at home order it almost felt like we were on a mini-vacation these past four days.
