Memorial Day Weekend in Sheridan

This past Memorial Day weekend, we spend time with the Hamilton family in Sheridan, Wyoming. Keith's Grand Dad passed away late last year and we all headed up to Sheridan for his Memorial on Monday.

To start the weekend, Stephanie (sister-in-law) threw a baby shower for Lindsey (sister-in-law) and myself. Lindsey is due only eight days earlier than I am, also with a little boy. It was a wonderful evening and I was so grateful for Stephanie for organizing a great time.

Aunt Donna, Aunt Patty, Mother-in-Law Jacquie, Sister-in-Law Lindsey, Me Carrie, Sister-in-Law Stephanie.

Jeff and Lindsey have a great dog, Daisy.
Oliver fondly refers to her as Daisy Dog.
He liked checking on her while she was napping to give her some extra snuggles.
The weekend started off cloudy, cold and rainy.
By Sunday, the sun came out and it started to warm up a little. Some of the guys went out golfing and they stopped to say hi when they were on the 6th hole, right behind the house. Oliver loved it!
We decided to hop in to ride the next two holes and then Oliver and I walked back to the house. Oliver got to ride in the cart with Papa and Uncle Jim, which he Loved!

By Monday, the weather was fabulous. Warm and sunny. A perfect day for Pop's memorial in the backyard.
Oliver spent some time in the morning hot roding around Nana's yard.
Nana bought this new tee pee for the kids to play in and they loved it.

This photo cracks me up. Somehow, Oliver managed to convince the other kids that they should pull him around in the wagon. Eventually, Kaden jumped in too. As they were flying by, I snapped this photo. Everyone is hard at work and Oliver has his parade smile on.
As they swung around, I asked for a photo. Immediately, this was the pose they struck. I couldn't have planned it better myself.
