Adventures in The Yoop

Sorry it's been so long to post, me & Dalton have been doing some traveling. We flew up to the Upper Peninsula in Michigan (a.k.a The Yoop) to visit all my family and we were having such a great time that we extended our vacation to 3 weeks. I think my hubby wondered if we were coming back! ha I finally got around to posting now that we are back in Vegas and settled into our normal routine.

As Dalton and Lauer get older (7 mos/6 mos at the time) we have such a blast letting them play together and seeing how they interact with each other. We did alot during our vacation to include visiting Colleen's farm, hitting the Pumpkin Patch (pics coming soon), their 1st professional photo shoot together at Walmart (hey- that's an event in itself) and most importantly - we got to have some serious quality visiting with everyone. We had such a great time that we are going back in December again and will have Travis meet us there for Christmas. We are so thrilled to all be able to be TOGETHER for the holidays and can't wait to torture the boys with more outfits and photo shoots!

We Are Fa-mi-ly!

Barnyard Adventures

Me, Melissa, Mom and the boys were invited to Colleen's farm to check out all the animals and take some pics. The boys seemed to really enjoy seeing/petting the horses but were a bit unsure of the cows. Thanks to Colleen and her boys for the grand tour (that's Stevie in the pic)!

Hey - It's Gettin' Crowed in Here, Cuz!

I think when we visit next in December that our babes might be too big to both fit in the sink.

Bathing Beauties

Tub time was a nightly event while visiting The Yoop...Grandma, Auntie Melissa and I would first fire up the blender and then sip Pina Coladas while we washed. Actually, they washed - I watched and drank.

This Will Come Back to Haunt Me

I'm sure both boys will NOT appreciate all these tub pics when they are older but too bad!! ha
