Memorial Day weekend

Saturday - Suit shopping - see previous blog entry for that event.
Sunday - We went to grocery shopping at Sam's Club and Walmart. Saturday evening, Doug started two "pork butts" in the smoker. He will take these to Iowa for the memorial service. I think he will probably make at least two more next weekend.
Monday - In the morning, Doug did some lawn maintenance and I did some housework. In the afternoon, Doug took his two pork butts out and he said they were the best he's ever done.  The Elliott family came over for an afternoon by the pool and then Doug grilled some Steak & Vegie Shisk Kebobs for dinner. Below are some photos from Monday.
 Andrew says "Happy Memorial Day!"
 Andrew loved playing in the water from the hose.
 Andrew crawled in the chair by Grandpa and was "checking out" his sandwich.
 Andrew talked him in to a bite!
 Getting Andrew to splash in the pool water.
 He ended up soaked ~ before he got his swimsuit on.
 Splashing by the side of the pool
 Swimsuit ON!
First bomb pomp of the summer.
I think he likes it!!!
 He wanted the whole thing ~ He didn't want to share with Grandma!
 It must have felt good on his new teeth coming in.
Andrew was very fascinated with Grandpa all day.
When Grandpa was outside the fence he was always "peeking" to see what he was doing.

Andrew was always next to Grandpa if he was around.
He kept calling "Poppa", "Poppa", "Poppa"
Jill was a little annoyed...especially since Andrew hasn't started saying Mama yet.
