Memorial Day 2014

We took the kids out to the cemetery to put flowers on Dan's parents' graves.  This year, Grandpa Dempsey had a flag.  Half of the time he does and half the time he doesn't!

Our annual Memorial Day picture of the kids

 I decided to do a family picture this year, so while I got the tripod set up, Dan got the kids lined up....

cheese!

It was a little sunny for a picture of the kids at their grandparent's graves!

The kids in a little pool for them to cool off

At first, Andy wouldn't get in, but would just play in the water at the edge

Andy checking out his siblings playing.  I love how curly his hair is!

Andrew finally decided to venture into the pool
