An Afternoon at the Park

I took the kids to the park yesterday for some play time and a "picnic" lunch. They had fun helping me decide what to pack to eat. They played until a storm came up and made us head for home.

Just hanging around......

Hold on Trey!!!!!!

It's Lunchtime!!

Happy Father's Day AND Birthday!!

We spent Father's Day hanging out with all the fathers in our family. We had lunch with Bill's Dad...then Trey & Nick's Father (aka Bill) relaxed/slept/watched NASCAR all afternoon. For supper we went to see my Father, who celebrated his birthday on Sunday as well.

Patiently waiting to sing and blow out the candles...(and of course eat cake!!)

Nick has his finger out and ready to swipe some icing when no one is looking....

I got this shirt for my Dad about 20 yrs ago (no joke)...He wears it every Father's Day!

Niagara Falls

Bill and I celebrated our Anniversary this year by going to Niagara Falls for a couple of days. Neither of us had been there, and we thought it would be a nice little get-away. Thursday we ate our Anniversary dinner at Wolfgang Puck's restaurant (obviously my pick!). Friday we had a great time riding the "Maid of the Mist" boat to see the falls up close, and then doing the "Journey Beneath the Falls" tour (Which took us through a tunnel, and out behind the falls).
I think we will definately go back with the boys when they are older!!

The view was absolutely amazing from our hotel room!!

Yes, I'm thrilled to have my picture taken...and yes, I realize it looks super-imposed...

The American Falls from the boat

Coming up to the Canadian Falls from the Maid of the Mist

We are pretty soaked by the end of our "Maid of the Mist" boat ride

Any idea why Bill was so intrigued by this Moose??

One last look at both the American and Canadian Falls as we cross the Rainbow bridge back into the US

Grandma Cathy & Grandpa Jim took great care of the boys, but they were pretty excited to see us when we got home!! It may have had something to do with the candy we brought them!!

This is the 80's and They're Down with the Ladies!!

Bill & Cron's Halloween costumes... from way back!!
