Memorial Day Weekend

Friday around lunchtime, we loaded up the van, and were on our way to North Carolina. Normally we stop about halfway at a restaurant to eat. This time I thought we would do something a little different and eat a picnic lunch. you should have heard the shouts of delight when I told the kids what we had planned. Here are the three little travelers at a rest area. After a 9 hour trip, we finally arrived at Leanna's house. Saturday, we all headed to a park nearby to celebrate Josh's high school graduation. Lauren found daisies and picked bunches for all the girls.


We had hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill, potato salad (3kinds)baked beans, chips, cake...mmmmm....it was all delicious!


We are SO proud of Josh and his accomplishment!


Josh and Charity....engaged and getting married in November.




The four Lambeth kids.....







We left Sunday evening, and arrived home early Mon morning,. It only took 7 hours to get home. We only had to stop one time on the way home....not bad for traveling with 3 kids!
This might be my last blog for a couple weeks. We are to be getting new carpet all through the house. Although we are excited about that, it will be quite a challenge moving furniture etc. because they plan to do all 3 floors in just 2 days. I'm also painting the living room and dining room before the new carpet comes!YAY! I will try to remember to take before and after pictures...the changes are going to be quite drastic, but I'm really in the mood to do something completely different!. Stay tuned.....

Glad you found my blog ;-) Love the Vera B. trip pics! And good luck with the painting! I can't wait to see the finished product! Our kitchen has been in an incomplete state for months :-( I'm ashamed! How long does it take to paint one room?!!
