Memorial Day Re-cap...

 We started our patriotic day with a new patriotic flag on the house.

 Then, in Johnson tradition, we walked to breakfast. (Correction: Will and I drove there... so we cheated.). We ate at Bruegger's Bagels and it was yummy!

 Will was very patriotic....starring at the neighbors flag for about 15 minutes straight. No matter that we had a flag on our house around the corner... he preferred the pole kind.

 Can you find Waldo?

 Will performed a few tricks for  us before his dad decided that he was ready for two wheel riding sans the training wheels.

 I sat outside with the ER on speed dial, as his dad guided him through his first ride...

  I guess sometimes in life we have to let go and see what happens...

  Even if this is the end result..

 But usually it all works out o.k. Will was riding like a champ in a few minutes flat. I was astonished!

 And, while Morgan headed out to a car dealer (that story later), the boys and I went swimming. The girls were playing with friends.

 There were snorkles....

 And slam dunks....

 And dolphins carrying Lund around the pool....... So basically, a lot of fun!

Then if that wasn't enough, the boys spent the afternoon on the trampoline throwing water balloons at me and Will. I would say it was a successful holiday. Stay tuned for the next chapter of Memorial Day, called.... Memorial Night!
