Memorial Day ' 07

This Memorial Day weekend we spent a day at the beach. Holden loves the ocean, the sand, and running free. He wasn't too thrilled about his hat though - good thing I slathered sunscreen all over him. My camera ran out of batteries so I wasn't able to capture all the fun he had playing with Fletcher and Stephanie Fuller. They had a big hole dug out that they all played in. Kelli, Fletcher and Stephanie's mom, brought out a big bucket of water and the kids splashed and played and filled it with sand. Holden sat still filling sand into the bucket for the longest period of time I've ever seen him sit - maybe 30 to 40 minutes (no joke!). Then he and Fletcher took turns (another wow! moment - they actually took turns!) standing in the sand and water-filled bucket to jump-jump-jump. Houston went along too, and was a pleasure to have with us. Trey and I kept asking each other - Is this our dog? He was so mellow and well behaved. We had a great day!
