A Day in the Life of Tyson........

Spotted a bunny with grampy.
 

Telling grammie all about the bunny.
 

Searching for the bunny. We had to look for awhile.
 

Petting the horses.
 

Checking out the horses. Tyson's expressions were so funny all day long!
 

 

Curious about the pipe down below and how could we climb down to pick it up. (Dr. Clifford's new house)
 

I didn't know Tyson could say the word, "excavator". He loves his trucks even though these were a bit big!
 

 

 

He wanted to go sit on the steps but...
 

Grampy convinced him to sit on the big rock.
 

He loves to dig in between the stones and put the sand in his truck.
 

Not sure he wanted to go downstairs, but he finally did, with some convincing.
 

 

He made it!
 

Met up with Jason, Emily and Corbin at Subway to eat then went to the grocery store. Grampy was having fun twirling Tyson around on the cart. I'm sure the other shoppers didn't think it was as cute as us.
 

He does love his baby brother!
 

Sitting on the lawnmower that had finally been converted to a snow plow. Thanks to Jason!
 

 

Playing in the box that the plow came in.
 

Such a great day being with this lil' boy! Didn't even get any pictures of us riding bikes together. He sure loves to talk now. We love him more than we can say!

South Carolina trip

More pics after Janessa recharged her phone. First is looking out to the Atlantic Ocean from their room. Right on the beach! Wow!
 

They went to Broadway (not sure what that is) but the fish know to come around you if people are in the water. They probably assume they will be fed. (Don't think I would want to swim in that water!)
 

They are doing good except she isn't 25 so the rental car cost more for them than expected. :(

Crazy Sails Quilt

Janessa finished her quilt top while at the cabin this past weekend! She was reading in the guest book and noticed that we had both started our Convoy and Crazy Sail quilts last June at the cabin. Ummmmm....yea. Sometimes it takes awhile to get something done. Good job Janessa! I still have a ways to go with mine!

Waiting for Chicago leg of flight

We found a way for Janessa to send me pics of her and Kasey's trip to SC. Here is the first pic. They are at the airport waiting to board their flight. They will land in Raleigh, NC later today.

Happy Easter and NCAA Final Four




On Friday we traveled to Indiana so we could visit my family and attend the NCAA Final Four and National Championship games. My family watched Josie during the Final Four games and Josie did so well during the travel and visiting new people and staying in a new place!



Josie loved looking at all the new people. She was pretty subdued in the stroller all day long!On the plane she slept and ate and she didn't make a sound...just one little shriek. It was totally out of the blue and Jared looked over and said, "Was that her?" I laughed and told him it was, but she made no other noises the whole time. Josie was out for most of the flight! I'm so proud of how good our little traveler did!
Jared and I had a great time at the Basketball games last night. It was the first time I left Josie at night. But she had a great time with my family and followed her schedule and was a perfect little angel. Yeah! Too bad she's not always like that for mommy and daddy...haha.



For the first game Jared and I sat up in our seats in the top section. It was hard to see...but the game was so great! Go Butler!
A lot of the fans from the first game left...and so we got to go down to a lower seat during the last game: Duke vs. WV. We were cheering for WV, but of course Duke won instead! Oh well...it was still a great night!
Jared and I are exited to see Duke and Butler play tomorrow.
