Memorial Day

After a weekend of rain, we woke to blue skies, puffy clouds and a cool breeze. We headed into Bell Canyon- spring leaves, wildflowers and rushing waters-amazing!

Diana and Ashley joined us.

After the hike, Diana made a fresh raspberry pie-like a fresh strawberry pie and truly one of the most decadent desserts ever- before we headed to the park to hear the Air Force Reserve Band play. They were amazing- their pipe band played the fanciest arrangement of Highland Cathedral that I have ever heard.

Later, we grilled and ate outside and then enjoyed watching the hang gliders float over us as we sat around the fire and the kids ran around the neighborhood. We are truly blessed-it was a perfect day.
