I added some more pictures on a previous blog entry, check it out.  It was our visit to Kentucky.  When we got home I had a nice visit with Leann Mitchel and we had fun watching movies and playing games.  Then Aaron and Britts returned to stay the summer with us.  This is how Grandpa and Dawson go to get the mail.  It works for everyone involved!

Ta da

I like it in here!

Grandpa is sharing his food with Dawson

Our Trip to Kentucky was fun.  We were bringing Reagan the "barbie"house and we had to take out the back seat and take the door off the car to get it in.  Once it was in we couldn't see out the back window the whole trip up there.

She loves her barbie house!  It had a fuchsia roof and green floors like her room.

surpirse

the things Grandparents will do for their grand children

And what great help Grandpa had in putting the door back on!

We need 2 of these cars, they always both go for it

I'm just helping Papa work!

As you can see the house was played with right away.  It also is a pretty pony house

Their shirts say 1 of 2 and 2of 2

How cute is this double lawn chair.  We are at  Thunder over Louisville.  We hung out all day and watched airplanes and then had a wonderful firework show

It got cold but who cares when you can watch airplanes all day

They had new groups all afternoon.  No blue angles or jets like usual as Oboma grounded them!!!! of couse the one year we come.

The bidge you see in the picture, when it was night had the fireworks on them and they brought in a barge that was bigger than a football field.  It was spectacular!  it was the best display of fireworks i have ever seen.  it was just beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Help Mom is cutting off my curls!!!! People used to ask if I was a girl

I am all boy and have cute waves now!  Thanks mom

Louisville has an awesome hands on science museum.  One day a month it is free.

There was even a lot for the little ones to do

A giant bubble

At this station you could build things

This was so fun.  It had air blowing through the tubes and you could change how it went through the valves. The kids put small rags or puff balls in it and it would suck them in and blow them out one of the openings

More fun with Papa

At the light table Reagan was very creative and took the pieces, that are magnetic, and made a castle.

After this picture was taken, Hudson came and knocked it down

This is how Heather gets around these days

Hudson doesn't think this is fair, he is strapped in.  Larry and I left the kids for a while and went to the part of the museum that had the body in motion display.  it was really interesting and we have been wanting to see it. It was a great day and we love being with the children and watching them explore and learn.  Heather is so good to go and do, even though it is a lot of work.

 

Brittany and Aaron came for a visit.  We all saw a spider on the ceiling,the 20foot ceiling!  So Larry is taping two brooms together so he can reach!

He still had to stand on a step stool!  The spider by then had caught on and climbed into the crown molding to hide

I thought it would be fun to have the pool up for baby Dawson.  We did it in the shade so he wouldn't get sunburned. 

It made a lot of noise!

We didn't play outside all the time!

The pool was to cold!  Even after putting boiling water in it.  That well water is cold

He kept us busy with throwing the toys into it and we would retrieve them

I got a smaller one.  We went from one extreme to another!  It gives him water to play in though

Notice anything different about the lake?  Where is our wall?  Covered up by water.

Getting the garden ready for planting and trying to keep the wild life out!

Notice the other wild life that is coming over to help out!

Mommy (Brittany) made a delicious french silk pie

Do you think he enjoyed it?

Grandpa and Dawson watching the Lorax for the 19th time.It was a good chance for Grandpa to rest a little

Homer and Sandi Pittard came for a nice visit.  Our good neighbor Wayne took us for a boat ride

Look how high the water level is.

It felt like you would hit your head

Just hanging on to my Grandpa.  Dawson stayed there snuggling with Larry for about 5 minutes.

Easter at Grandmas house, finding a basket and some goodies

What a cute family

Our special friends!  Homer and Sandi Pittard.  We miss them already

He knows how to get the eggs open.  He hits them on their sides and pushes down on them
