Memorial Day

Deni and I started out the day at 6:30am helping with the YM/YW Flag fund raiser that we did this year. We put out about 25 flags around the neighborhood. We got done about 7:00am. When we got home, we got our bikes and equipment loaded into the van ready for our bike and swim later in the day. At 8am we went to the ward pancake breakfast as a family. Finally about 9am we headed to Salem Pond to have one last training before our big even on June 2nd.

Deni went first. She swam the 1/2 mile swim, then road the 12 mile bike route. After she was done, it was my turn.

It was nice to actually have a holiday and not work. In the past, I've always volunteered to work on holidays as the extra money is always nice, however it was fun to just be at home and have a short week of work.

I built a little grow box today that we planted two different pumpkins in it. I asked Ryan and Sydney to select which pumpkin they wanted and I asked them to come up with a name for their plants. Ryan named his "Ghostrider" and Sydney named hers "Jackie".
