Happy 1st Birthday Keegan!!!
We hope you have a wonderful day and dig into some yummy cake!! We love you so much!
Braden and I went to McDonald's for lunch and then hit the park for some fun on his last official day before starting school!!
A little cuddle time with Daddy after taking a pretty hard fall off of the monkey bars tonight. He knocked the wind out of himself and turned pretty pale - but nothing was broken and he bounced back pretty quickly - this was our first, but I'm sure not our last for our little monkey!
...tattoos galore...
...drove around like madmen in the street...
...ate yummy cotton candy from our very own cotton candy machine!...
...got to ride in the front of the fire truck...
...then they pulled up a chair to rest their tired legs...
...and ended the night with some crazy dance moves on our dance floor... (man I wish I would have had video of these two bustin' a move!!)
Baby shower for Lindsay tonight!! It was a great night! Can't wait to meet Miss Grace!!
Quote of the Day
Ethan and his 2 buddies making a *spider web* on the back deck - that was fun to clean up - but at least it kept them busy for awhile!!
Today I went down to Missouri to visit my good friend Angie and my Godson Ethan - here is the goofball! We love you all!
Then Keegan had fun knocking down Uncle Matt's blocks - it was a fun game!
After present time we all headed to the county fair!
Braden and Keegan thought the goats were pretty silly!
Love this picture of father and son!
Then on the way out Braden and PopPop found a camoflauge *truck* to drive!!
Look at the little man's hair :):):)
Let's just say my heart skipped a beat when I saw my precious camera tumbling off the counter - I thought the lens was shattered - thank goodness for filters - it took the blow and the rest of the camera was fine - big sigh of relief - I mean really, what would I do without my camera :)
Today was quite possibly the first time that Braden took the time to try and color (or paint in this case) in the lines! Usually it's just not his thing! He was so proud of his rocket ship! 
This is how he *rolled* out of his room when I told him to go get his swimsuit on - what a goon!
One last trip across the street before we headed home today! Braden had so much fun! It was a great way to end our family vacation!!We made a little surprise detour on our way home today. We left bright and early at 6am to make sure we got plenty of time to play at the JOHN DEERE PAVILLION in Moline, IL. Braden had NO idea we were stopping - and has been asking to go here since he saw it on one of his videos. He got mad when we pulled off the interstate and said he "just wanted to go home"...that was until we turned the corner and he saw it - we absolutely LOVE that we were able to put that kind of smile on his face. He said it was the "best surprise ever". He also loved that we stayed in the hotel right across the street for the night! Pure joy I tell ya!! It was awesome - Enjoy!

Braden loved riding on the paddle board with Uncle John
Braden finally found a boat to play with in the lake - (he's been looking for weeks) Meena and PopPop found this one with him at the grocery store! What fun $1.99 can buy you :)
Braden loves his Aunt KT
Our little family 2008
The 4 *kids*
Of course KT and I enjoyed some yummy wine - it wouldn't be Michigan without it!
All of us - thank to you all for such an awesome week! It is awesome that we can all take the time and spend it together! I did luck out in the in-law department :)
