Memorial Day Weekend

If there's one thing you should know about the Merten's clan it's this: WE LOVE GOING FOR WALKS!

Mom was shocked when she discovered that Rosie's actually taller than her now!

Bonfire on Monday after an amazing dinner that Dad grilled for us: Pork Chops, Baked Potatoes, Salad and Strawberry Shortcake!

S'more Time!

Mother's Day

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM! I'm so blessed to have you in my life, I honestly don't know where I would be without you!

SO, yesterday we grilled out for mother's day, salmon w/garlic & whiskey sauce, rice pilaf, salad, steamed veggies and pineapple. Her favorite! It was a very special day, and we even made her cry (for a good reason though)

My BEAUTIFUL mother

I know I always say this, but I think they're adorable

Since Illinois can even have cold weather in May, Dad grilled the salmon in the garage!
