Memorial Day Weekend

Wow what a fantastic 4th of July weekend we had!  But I refuse to post about it until I write about Memorial Day weekend.
It finally happened...Grandpa and Grandma G moved into their new place {ie East Canyon Retreat}!  It has been a long time coming, building it himself with help from my brothers and the son-in-laws.  These men gave as much time as possible and many Saturdays to get their place completed.  Nice work guys!
It is gorgeous and as cozy as you can imagine.
Taking a break to play some games...
And go 4 wheeling...
And play on the tractor {the girls were acting out 80's Footloose scene, side pony tails and all}
 On Memorial Day, we rose the flag and dedicated the new cabin home.  It was good for Sambo to practice the flag ceremony for Cub Scouts:



We are really, really excited for them and look forward to spending lots of time and holidays up there. I know so many memories will be made there.  It was fun to be all together and help get them moved in and settled in their new abode.  They are so happy!
We were so busy moving that we didn't make it to the graves this year...but we still took a moment to remember our loved ones.


PS: We are soooooo happy to have the cousins here from Minnesota!
Nate and Ellie
