Memorial Day Weekend
We had a very busy Memorial Day weekend. We were planning on a fairly relaxing one but things changed. On Saturday we did have a relaxing day, went grocery shopping, but that was about it, though the grocery trip did span 3 stores.
On Sunday we went strawberry picking and then to my in-laws for their annual Memorial Day cookout. One of Dan’s friends from middle school came as well with his wife, so it was nice to hang out with them. We had fun at the cookout and strawberry picking.
On Monday we decided to go to Sesame Place. We had discussed maybe going on Monday on Sunday and decided that both Dan and I felt up for it. So we made the 2 1/2 hour car trip up, there was next to no traffic, which was nice, and the Delaware toll plaza has been finished off and the traffic flow actually flows there now rather then being a 30+ minute ordeal. We had a fun 4 hours at Sesame Place and then headed home again. It was a nice day, though the ride home, was a bit rough with Eloise melting down at one point and us having to stop to get her to calm down, which woke up Desmond, sigh. Everyone had fun at Sesame Place though, Eloise even went on more then the carousel! She did the family water slide twice with Dan and Desmond, and one other water slide once with Dan. Desmond got to ride a bunch of water slides, and the roller coaster 3 times, which he really loved. Sully had fun in the water, and slept a lot, since it was so hot. All in all it was a great day if hot, and long with all the driving. Oh and we think that Eloise has motion sickness, which would explain the occasional car sickness episodes she has and her dislike of spinning rides as well!
Anyways here are a couple of pictures, I’ll actually do a post for pictures from each event, well except grocery shopping (since even I don’t take pictures of that!), since there are a bunch. I’m going to spread out the posts through this week though, so that I don’t have a ton of posts on any one day.
