Andrew and Sydney sharing a secret.

Boys playing in the backyard

Sydney playing with the boys.

Bryan gives Sydney a tour of the yard. Sydney is tired but happy in his new home.

New babysitter? ha ha ha - just kidding!!!! The boys help me set up the kennel for Sydney and test it out to make sure Syd will be comfortable.

Syd is very sweet - here he is loving Daddy and Grandma.

Sydney, our new dog arrived home Sat June 26, 2010. He is a retired greyhound. His racing name was Kaias Ben Away.

Yes, Michael won monopoly again!! He is very good. So proud of how well he counts, except when he is counting while I pay his rents and I have no more money.

Happy Birthday!!!!

Just a little ice cream cake - YUM

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mom got lots of beautiful gifts for her birthday. Andrew wanted to eat the flower cake or at least help blow out the candles!!

Happy Birthday Mom AKA Grandma!!!!

We started the day celebrating at the pool!!

Our first trip to the movies ended before the movie was over. We instead went to change our clothes and head over to the fountain for the first time this summer. Grandma loved watching the boys play but she and I stayed dry.

A ride in the cars pulled by a quad was cool, snacks always great!!

Pony rides with the Playgroup - Grandma loved watching the boys...brought back memories of her horse ride with Aunt Nancy in New Zealand!!

Michael shows Grandma his favorite cookie cookbook, picks a cookie, and shows Grandma how well he makes cookies with Andrew's help.

Fun fishing at Bass Pro shop

A trip to Raceworld is fun for everyone!!

Breakfast to celebrate Uncle Thomas' birthday after starting the day with Mass.

Bowling - Mom tried her hand at bowling since we went alone and Michael was much better. Andrew had fun eating pizza!!

Here we are at the pool - having fun!!
