Weekend with Bobo, Grandma and Uncle Neal!

We headed south this weekend, Brody went to stay with Bobo and Grandma and Jim and I went to Indiana with our Neighbors. On Saturday my parents and brother took Brody to Uncle John's Cider Mill and Jim and I enjoyed an adult evening at a dinner party.


TOOT TOOT!



Look at all this sand Uncle Neal!

This may be the only time you ever see a picture of Brody in an MSU shirt!

Ludington Camping Trip

We had a great time in Ludington this weekend. It was much nicer weather than when we started out the summer there in the cold and rain. Brody was even brave enough to venture out in to the sand and water this time around.

Look at all this sand!

Ready with my bucket!

Wow - that is a lot of water!

Throwing sand is much better than building with it!

MMM...smores! (a boy after his mom's heart)

End of Summer Fun

We celebrated the end of summer with friends and family! Last weekend my work invited everyone to attend the Whitecaps game (local baseball team). We had a great time at the game! Brody even got a big Finger to hold up!

Brody has become quite talkative in the last few weeks. He is definitely turning in to an active toddler!

We had a HUGE garden this year (maybe even a little over grown!). Even with all of the crowding Brody really enjoyed helping us collect the vegetables. We seemed to have the most luck with zucchini and cucumbers this year.
We went to visit Jim's family this past holiday weekend. It was our last chance to have Brody travel for free so we decided to take advantage of it. He did fairly well on the airplane (much better on the way home!). He had such a great time playing with his cousins Dylan and Sydney! It was great for us to see all of our family and get to spend a few days relaxing.
My new computer is now all set up with internet (so according to Jim there should be no excuses not to get back on track with the blog). I should have a lot to post about after our end of season camping trip this weekend!
