Memorial Day Weekend Recap

I guess I had to come back to reality at some point and this week, and today was the day.  Awesome. [insert sarcastic groan here]  This past weekend was one of those weekends I wish could have gone on forever.  We had a ton of fun and amazing weather. I think it's safe to say that this weekend was the PERFECT kick off to Summer 2013!

1. Our Memorial Day catch of shell cracker and blue gill.  

2. We could not have asked for a more beautiful day on the Middle Pond.

3. Eric and one of his big shell crackers.

4. Saturday night shrimp boil.

5. Memorial Day feast of fresh caught fish (see pic #1), homemade hush-puppies, coleslaw, and pasta salad. 

6. When you're tired sometimes dinner just tastes better laying down.  

7. One of my shell crackers. 

I guess you could say our goal this weekend was to spend it on the water, some way, some how, and we successfully met that goal with flying colors!  Between fishing trips and lazy afternoons at the pool, we soaked up as much sun as we possibly could.  Lots of fishing trips meant lots of fish to eat, which we took care of (and still are).  We stuffed ourselves silly with some amazing fried fish and hush-puppies.  I mean, who doesn't love a good hush-puppy or six. =)  Note to self: start diet ASAPAG (as soon as [hush] puppies are gone).  

The only thing that could make the sting of having to go back to the real world a little easier to bear would be another long day weekend coming up....oh wait!  I DO have another three day weekend coming up this weekend!  3 more days....I think I can, I think I can!
