Oh Brother...

While looking at pictures of his cousin Ben holding his brand new baby sister, Brooklyn, Drew said:

"I remember when Grant was born and I was holding him.... but then he growed up too fast"

Yeah, I hear ya buddy :)

and btw, you're growing up too fast too!

In Love with Locomotives

Oh boy, are my kids ever :)

We heard about a "Train Park" about an hour from us-- a little park built around a few tracks where 80-90 trains come through each day. We had to go. When Grandma and Grandpa Burningham were here was the perfect time!

In the hour we were there, we saw about 5 trains come through- not bad! Heaven for two little kids in love with trains :)

While they were here we also went on a bike ride to the famous little bridge by our house- built in 1888!

Thanks for coming to visit Grandma & Grandpa- we always love it when you're here! Come again soon! :)

Gotta love humidity

Okay, just kidding on that one... not really. BUT, even though the weather was out of control-- we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to FL to spend time with my family!! Always a good, relaxing time in store when we head there!
Started out the trip right with Grandpa pulling the kids around on the sleeping bag :)

Drew loved playing the wii with Adam :)


Loved the pool... as always :)

Building sand castles at Clearwater Beach with Grandma Julie



Touching Sting Rays at Lowry Park Zoo



Our one day at Magic Kingdom was jam-packed full, but so fun and so worth it!


Waiting, waiting, waiting for the rides :)


The Castle!


And Laura, my sister-in-law, worked really hard ;) to make sure our new little nephew, Taylor, came before we had to head back home. Sweet little baby boy!!

We love our family!

Shelling Peas

We have a {SMALL} garden this year... I mean really small. But hey, you've got to start somewhere, right?


Today was eventful for me because we picked pea pods off the plants and shelled our peas. Drew was a big helper :) Mmmm... fresh peas with dinner tonight!
