Memorial Day Weekend

We had a great weekend! Dan's brother, Jonathan, just graduated high school and starts a summer/fall job in Nantucket today working on a fishing tourist boat. He flew out on Friday and we were able to spend the weekend with him. It was a lot of fun. We took a trip up the coast of New Hampshire. It's beautiful up there. We found a spot to pull over and we played on the rocks looking for shells and neat looking rocks. Mckenzie had a blast and has now learned how to say "LET GO!" (yeah, she wasn't the biggest fan of leaving the rocks and having to go back in the carseat). We couldn't have asked for better timing to have Jonathan here. Dan and I were asked to speak in sacrament meeting for the first time since we got married almost 5 YEARS AGO! We consider ourselves very lucky in this regard. In fact, the last time I spoke in a sacrament meeting was right after I got home from my mission. Anyway, he was such a great help to us while we gave our talks. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Monday we took him to Nantucket to get him all settled in. We're about an hour and a half drive from Cape Cod and an hour ferry boat ride to the island. We spent the day walking around the cute little shops, meeting his boss, going to the beach and taking pictures. I absolutely LOVE Nantucket and if I ever were to have an extra $20 million on hand, I would buy a beach house there. So, donations are now being accepted. It was a fun trip filled with a couple of things we have had on our list of "touristy things we need to do" and it was worth every minute!

That looks like such a cool little town. I'll for sure come visit you when you get your $20 million home there :)
