Melon Days 2013

Destry's life was made complete this past weekend when we combined riding in a tractor with eating copious amounts of watermelon. Gray also thought eating candy from massive buckets on a wagon was pretty sweet too.

He's two

I finally got around to snapping a few 2-year-old pics of Gray yesterday. This one was my favorite:

Fancy, Fancy

I can't remember if I ever showed you these paintings:

this was a cabbage I grew in my garden. It was huge. Now it's forever immortalized.

Someday if I die early, Mike, you get this one.

So there you have it. A wee somethin' somethin' to look at.

Bring Me Your Huddled Masses

Des had his first soccer game/practice today:

"May the Force be with you, young Padawan."

sometimes we need a little reminding...

...of how cute four year olds can be sometimes.

 *moment of zen*

scarred for life

destry's swimming teachers convinced him to go down the water slide the last day of class...

he was less than impressed

can you tell how much he loved swim lessons? He'll be repeating this course again next year...

Did I mention this kid loved the sand?

By the end of our trip he was rolling in it...
