Memorial Day

On Memorial Day we were invited at Jon and Jill's house in New Caanan, CT. As we have known them for so long now and Ben has been working with Jon for so many years, I like to think of them as part of our family. Great to have them close again!

Before we went there Ben took the kids to see part of the parade in White Plains. Lilly wore her cute white, blue and red dress and was waving her flag.

We then went around lunch time to their house. They have a beautiful big house with a great back yard with an awesome pool and a trampoline - heaven for our kids.

And their kids are old enough to be great babysitters which I really liked :-) Thanks Grace, Madeline and Caroline!

The kids (all of them) spent most of the time in the pool or on the trampoline and the older girls took turns watching Finn and Lilly. 

Lunch was great: Jon did BBQ on the grill, yummy side dishes and lots of fruit which Finn and Lilly loved.

Gracie and Lilly in the pool - that was in the beginning when she was still getting used to it

Beautiful backyard and pool - the group of people was really nice and fun

Caroline and Finn at the pool - this was a great start for the pool season, Finn even jumped off the diving board into the pool and swam to the ladder to get out again!

And at the end of the day they turned on their fire pit and the kids (big and small) were roasting Marshmellows.

Thank you very much for a wonderful day and we look forward to being back again this summer. 

As Lilly put it: "Again Big Jon's house. Me love girls." :-)
