The Boys are Back in Town!

The boys had a WONDERFUL week at Grandma and Grandpa's! They didn't seem to miss us at all...but were very glad to see me on Saturday morning :)

We took advantage of the cool Wisconsin weather and played outdoors much of the weekend (as they had done all week!)

Maverick tried to turn a bucket into a pool!




Of course, Grandma was all to happy to cuddle him dry afterwards.

My Mom and Dave live in a log cabin. Isn't it just beautiful? On our last plane trip to see them, the pilot invited Mitchell into the cockpit. I couldn't hear their entire conversation, but as Mitchell turned around to leave I heard him yell over his shoulder "yeah, and she lives in a log cabin." Apparently, he was informing him that he was off to visit his Grandma. :)

And no trip is complete without a picture in front of the Welcome Bear.





One of the boys' favorite outdoor pasttimes - Tractor rides!

Our quick 45 minute plane ride home turned into a 3 hour ride due to plane delays, but luckily the boys were good! Here is Maverick entertaining himself a bit on the floor of the airplane. He actually pointed at my camera which was in my carry-on bag, looked at me and said "Cheese?". I felt obligated to take his picture!  (If you look close enough, you can see that he's also holding it on his tractor ride above.)

...and one of his tired big brother.  Notice the orange and purple stuffed lizard that he's sleeping with.  Apparently he won it at a county fair carnival game with Aunt Kelli.  "Lizzie" has barely left his side...even when he's sleeping!

Here is Mitchell relaxing on the outdoor sidewalk as we waited for our parking shuttle driver to arrive to take us to our car. He loves wearing Mommy's sunglasses. Yes, we've purchased countless pairs of Mitchell sized sunglasses, but can't ever keep track of them. Mommy's seem more popular anyway!



They were both home, fed, bathed with fresh haircuts and in bed by 8pm.

THANKS again to Grandma & Grandpa for watching the boys. Mitchell has accidently called us "Grandma or Grandpa" instead of "Mom or Dad" about 100 times....I think that one is going to take a while. :)
