5-Year Anniversary

Chris has officially been with John Deere for five years now...and we've never been down to John Deere Pavilion in Moline. So, we took a family trip today. :) Pictures to come!

Done!

They wore themselves out! We went to a restaurant to eat some lunch and they were both GONE! Libby and Ganion rode with my aunt, and she said that Ganion was almost asleep...unfortunately, he made Libby his pillow and she said NO WAY and kept him awake. :)

Crazy Boy!

These are pictures of my (might as well call him) nephew, Ganion. He has LOTS of energy and is ALL boy. ;)

Grace and Her Friends

Grace was completely content to be with someone the whole time.

This is my cousin's son, Anthony. He worked REALLY well with Grace.

Cat Work: Sad but Funny

Being that our cats are outdoor cats, they are learning outdoor cat ways. So, the other day we found two special presents at our front door: a grasshopper and a teeny tiny shrew. I showed the shrew to Libby (hey, it was kind of cool...I've never seen a shrew before!) and she got reallly excited. So, she brought a clear container to put the little guy in and then wrote out a title for her presentation. Thus, Cat Work: Sad but Funny.

Lighthouse Fun!

Ganion, Libby and Grace had an absolute blast at the Marblehead Lighthouse. We let them check out (ok...they ended up playing in) the water first. We figured if (yeah, right...more like since) they got wet, we would let them do the water thing first and then go check out the lighthouse.

Hi mommy! I love you!

This is getting boring. Why can't I be out there with my sisters?

I am SO bored! Will you pay attention to me now?

Freedom! Finally!

Aunt Steph's Place

After a long road trip(yes, I am just now blogging about our Ohio trip almost a month ago), we made a pit stop at Aunt Steph's place. The girls were beyond thrilled to find a pond to swim in, and enjoyed time with Aunt Stephie.
