Happy Birthday Papa!

Hi Dad,

Happy Birthday to my favorite dad in the world. I couldn't have gotten a better one. We attempted to wish you happy birthday with a lovely sign Grace decorated. . .but let me say after some tears, screaming and bargining this is what we got. We love you!

Kiddos

Don't ask what Grace was doing. . .she has a mind of her own. . .

Here are some random shots of today and the kiddos. We have a ton more pictures from our time in Chicago but they are on the other camera. . .so until I get that camera figured out here they are. . .

Shot in the eye. . .with hairspray. . .I don't recommend it.

Some Random Shots

Obie and his Daddy.

Family Kisses. . .Grace was already in bed. . .plus if she had been up I don't think we would have been able to get a picute.

Graces favorite place. THE ZOO. She had just gotten done riding the zebra. She waved to everyone as she rode. Then when we got off I asked if I could take her picture. Grace then stood on the hill and clapped her hands, over and over and over.

Finally a day were no shoes were needed.

Grace discovered jello this weekend. Cool treat after a hard days play.

AHHHHHH. . . .YAWN YAWN. . . . time for bed. I just wanted to post these random pictures.

Fun Times, Fun Times

GOOD MORNING MIKE. He really wasn't as tired as he looked.

What a weekend. Nice weather and fun times. Friday we

went and hung out at Costco. Saturday we went to the zoo and then went and hung out at someone's house from church. We got home late, 11pm, Obie slept until 10:30 am (getting up every now and then) and Grace slept until 8:30 p.m. Obie seemed to have a stuffy nose. We didn't go to church. In the afternoon we did some yard work and planted some new plants. If they grow the yard will look pretty nice. . .that is if they grow. We also got a bing cherry tree. Now if that would grow and make cherries I would be in heaven.

Best Daddy

Mike watched Grace and Obie almost every evening this week. Grace has had a blast. They have played in puddles, swam in the bath tub, gone for walks and put grass seed in the back yard. Doesn't get any better then that. I'll have to post the rain pictures later.

Rainy Days

Rain Rain go away,
come again another day.
