It rained and rained over the Memorial Day Weekend, but that did not stop the Murphy and Curnow kids from enjoying the pool. Max, Bella and Connor were water-logged all weekend thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Bradley's beautiful swimming pool. Despite weather in the low 50s outside all weekend, the pool room was kept at a balmy 82 degrees. Fun was had by all!

This picture provides a little insight into our lives right now. Our beautiful baby girl, Miss Brighton, has become a bit of a bear-cat. While Gavin may not like the expression on his face in this picture, the photo demonstrates Brighton's unwillingness to share her daddy with her big sister. A close look at the picture reveals that Brighton is pushing Bella out of her daddy's lap, so she can have her favorite man all to herself! This scenario was played out this morning, when Brighton did not want to share Mommy . . . even with Daddy!
Uncle Joe is definitely one of Brighton's favorites, but, then again, she did not have to share him while swimming, at least (Connor and Carter do demand her to share at other times).
Max and Connor had a great time going off the slide in whatever form struck their fancy (backwards, forwards, head first, feet first, bootie first, you name it).

On Monday the Bradley (Dad's) Family joined us for a barbeque and decorating the graves in Dillon. This is a special tradition in which Grandpa Beau's family has been participating for as long as we can remember. Grandma-the-Great (in the center of the picture, a true matriarch) is joined by all four of her children, their spouses, and whatever grandchildren and great-granchildren can make it for a trip to the cemetery with a barbeque to follow. This year, the post-cemetery festivities were held inside, but there was still lots to do for Grandma-the-Great's little-ones. The food was excellent (I won't make anyone salivate by going into details), and everyone enjoyed the opportunity to talk and enjoy the rain.
On Monday morning we all went to the famous Blue Anchor in Twin Bridges for some sustenance. Bella, Connor and Max were lucky enough to sit at the bar and enjoy some quality time together, while the rest of the crew (in the background) watched on.
