Memorial Day Weekend

We would have loved to go on a fun trip for Memorial Day Weekend, but we decided to stay home and adult.  (Dave is finishing the front of the house and getting ready for our upcoming camping adventure.)  We did find some fun new adventures in Omaha, starting with a trip to Lauritzen Gardens, which had free admission in honor of the "Amazing Stinko."  It's a plant that rarely blooms and emits a strong disgusting odor to attract flies.  We checked out the stinky plant and got to explore the rest of the gardens, which were actually really neat.  The girls loved seeing peaches, bananas, and pineapples growing.  The older girls loved the experience so much, they wanted to return the next day when the Amazing Stinko bloomed.

We celebrated Memorial Day downtown with the Luddington family.  It was a beautiful night with splashing, rolling down hills, tormenting a frog, spending time together, and watching fireworks. 

We have also been enjoying beautiful evenings at local parks so we can squeeze in some PT time for Indie and play time for the girls.  Bed time has not been an issue since we started summer vacation haha.
