Memorializing Antonio's Memorial Day

Antonio took us up to the island for the holiday weekend. It was great for the kids to get to see cousin Elijah, who is on the go all the time with a smile on his face. But Antonio didn't want to stay inside all weekend. He put on his boots and hit the town. He wanted to get to the lake, and he didn't want to wait for us to drive him. Grandma introduced Antonio to the local neighborhood kid statues:
The local neighborhood dog-with-a-lantern-in-its-mouth statue:
Then showed him the awesome surprise she had waiting for him at the lake. Green sand!


While at the lake, Antonio took proper precautions and made sure to wear his life jacket at all times.

Even when he and cousin Elijah were just dipping their toes in the baby pool.
The entire family gathered around to watch the boys play.
And when I got done with my golfing, the two of us boys played in a different way. Antonio kind of enjoys being upside down. There's a pretty good chance he's going to be a trapeze artist when he grows up. That or a professional giggler, because he's pretty good at that, too.
