Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day weekend we went to Hot Springs with two of our very good friends Sherry and Jackson. They had never been to Lake Hamilton so I was sure that we could show them a good time. We went Saturday morning to the farmers market and then we shopped a few stores. We got home and went out on the lake. Maggie had a great time swimming in the lake this year and she was much better about wearing her life jacket. Turner just went to sleep which is exactly what Maggie did at that age. We went and bought a tube to have just a little bit more fun!!! It has been two summers since I got to tube since I was pregnant last summer. I was more excited than anyone!! Maggie got to tube for the first time with me. It was pretty neat having my daughter experience something that I love to do so much!!! Sunday we had people over and watched the fireworks. We had a great day and loved being with friends.

Monday we went downtown and ate at the Pancake House and then came back to pack up. Maggie and Jackson were playing in the bedroom. Jackson came out and told us he had locked the door. So I called Maggie to the door and tried to tell her how to get out. She was very hysterical when she realized she was locked in there. After moments of panic from everyone I started going to the window to calm her down and letting her know we would get her out somehow. I pushed M&M's under the door but she was having no part in that. Finally we called Pop A Lock and 911. Meanwhile she was at the window telling me she loved me and I was just wanting to cry seeing her so sweet and scared. So when she heard someone trying to get in the door she was yelling "Help, Help" and the man from Pop A Lock said " I will get you out little girl". When he finally got the door open and Maggie calmed down she said "That man rescued me!". Jackson felt so bad for locking the door but Pop A Lock saved the day. I think if he had not come fast enough Poppy would have busted the door down or a window open. Memories Memories
