Back Home.

We're BaAAck!! After spending 3 1/2 weeks back on the farm in MO we are back home.
Here are a few snip-its from our time back in MO.


Grandma Randi and her boys. Grandma Randi was a true trooper during our invasion. We took over her house and she welcomed us with open arms.


Grandma Randi attempting to sew a quilt, give a horsey ride to Griffin with her leg and trying to avoid getting stuck with a "sharp" (sewing pin) by Roman, who insisted on having full control of the pin cushion.

Griffin and Grandma formed a strong bond. She didn't get too far out of his sight.
Grandpa took Roman fishing and he caught lots of catfish, which we ate for dinner.
It was so fun seeing my girlfriends from high school. I didn't take many pictures besides these. We visited a classmate of mine, Emily and her daughter Mallory. Mallory is 3, drives a pink caddy and has full access to cool pops and does all the driving... good catch!
When Roman got home we told Grandma all about our fun afternoon with Mallory.
Grandma asks: "what did you think about Mallory?"
Roman puts his hand on his chin and thinks a moment, "Just Pretty"
HA!

Mom made these sunflower cupcakes. Very cute and very yummy!

We stayed with Aunt Andrea in St. Louis for a few days. We decided to go to Grant's Farm.
We rode the Carousel....

Andrea will be such a good mom. She saw the fear in Griffin's face before in came out in the form of pure panic... she got him off the horse and they finished the ride in the bench seat. Huge Tortoise
Petting the Guinea pigs.
Baby Goat wanted some of roman.
Fun at Grandmas

Silly...


Relaxing...
Getting Dirty...


Griffin got his first bummed up knee.... the first of many. It's tough being a farm boy.
We took the boys to have ice cream. Roman went many time with Grandpa, but this time was with Grandma and I.
Then we went across the street to a small park.
I thought this would be such a good place for a sweet picture of the boys. It turned out a little different than I had envisioned... as most things in life with kids goes.

Such a sad picture!
I'm not sure why you tell a kid to say cheese when you want them to smile... all of Roman's pictures have this face of him making a CH sound... ug!
No, this picture doesn't exactly scream happiness... but they are together and stationary. What more could I ask for??

My Aunt Gertrude turned 95 years old while I was home. She rode a train from California to Missouri with out a sleeping car at 95 years old. Can you imagine?? I'm really glad I've got just a little of her DNA in me.
We celebrated her birthday with cake for breakfast. The boys were thrilled!
The pictures barely do our trip justice. It was a great get away!
