Look Mom!

We were outside working around the yard tonight and I see Ty walking across the yard holding something. As I get closer I realize he has a dead mouse! I don't know where he got it. I'm assuming he didn't kill it. None the less, he was pretty excited about his treasure! I'm just hoping it didn't go in his mouth like everything else.

Road Trip!

Well, we did it. My mom and I drove down to NC with the kiddos to visit my sister last weekend. It was a great trip. The kids did awesome.

Jake and I went to the US National White Water Center. It is the US Olympic training site. Later this month they are hosting the Olympic trials here. We watched the rafters and kyakers braving the rapids. They also had a climbing wall. Jake made it to the top several times.

We also went to Lowes Moter Speedway. The track was closed, but the security guard took us up so we could take a peak. Jake had earned $6 just before we left and wanted to spend his money at the race track. You know what you can buy for $6 in the gift shop? Nothing! We were able to find a Jimmy Johnson bobble-head and a post card. We mailed the post card to him from NC. He can't quite figure out how it is going to get back to MI, but I told him don't worry, it will come...I hope!

PJ and Ty enjoying their snack. This picture was taken right before Ty sneezed graham cracker all over PJ. Yum!

The weather was beautiful! Jake and Lindsey got to go swimming. We went to the park a couple times. It felt so good to be outside in shorts!

Taking a snooze on the way down to NC.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA!

It was my Mom's birthday while we were there. She was sharing her favorite marble b-day cake with the boys.

You Gotta Love School Pictures!

Doesn't she look excited!! Don't you think they could have at least fixed her pig-tails? Total hat-head. At least she has on her favorite shirt. She would wear this shirt every day if I would let her.
