After the family reunion, the kids and I spent the week at the farm and stayed through the 4th of July fun. We loved having some down time at Gramma & Grampa's...always goes by way too fast!
Ben & Courtney watching cartoons.
I helped my mom weed through a few closets upstairs and came across this gem...still worked like a charm! The boys thought it was pretty cool...I had to show them how to gently place the needle and inform them, no, this can't go in the DVD player. We found a whole stack of children's books with the little records, and even some of my parents 'ol music albums. Ahh, the memories.
A big fan of the jumparoo!
Gramma teaching patty cake.
Playing in Beaver Creek!
The dogs were lovin life too.
Another couple years sis and you'll be splashin through there too.
Ben wanting to go across the bridge...sorry buddy, it's not so much that I thought the bridge would collapse, it's more so that there is NO sidi to the bridge except that top little wire. What were my parents thinking letting us play on this thing all the time?! :)
