Grandma Time

Grandma came down this week to spend some time with us and go to Beech Bend. It was a great visit! 

We headed to Beech Bend and did water stuff first. It was a really overcast day and the water was pretty chilly actually due to all the rain we have gotten this week. But we still enjoyed it. After water, we headed over to ride rides. 

She is a great Beech Bend pal because she rides everything! Griffin was in heaven. 









Poor things- on this ride you have to turn a wheel in the middle to spin... poor grandma couldn’t turn it by herself so they couldn’t spin. Haha! 

They opened the Crazy Bus again finally!! 














The boys have been wanting to go to the show all summer, and we finally caught one that day. And Griffin ended up getting to go on stage and help with a Magic Trick! He was sooo excited! 




After Beech Bend, we had a Baseball Banquet and then we went home and played before bed. The next day, Grandma and the boys played in the yard, in the house, and got lunch at Chick-fil-a. 

It was a really great visit! It was a great time to play and hangout with nothing to rush to, no holiday to deal with etc. These for no special reason visits are the best :-) 

Happy Summer! 

Week in Review- 6/17-6/23

We have packed all kinds of summer fun into this week! 

Daddy played in a church softball game Tuesday, and Griffin took his money so he could buy junk from the concessions. He figured out the money himself, and bought stuff for his brother too! How did my kid get so big?? 

This ones looking awfully big too. And becoming even more sports obsessed, which I can’t believe is possible! 

We finished up our swim lessons this week also... 

We had a Park night for church. It was a beautiful night and great break! 












We spent some time outside in the yard and played kickball one night and baseball another night! 



Saturday we headed up to visit Jeanice & Adam, and see their new little man. It was a great visit! Adalynn has gotten so big and became quite the fan of Griffin! Haha! 

(This is where we picked up lunch... interesting advertising choice! Haha) 







After we got home, we headed to a Hot Rods game with Uncle D and Michelle! The ZOOperstars were there and were hilarious!! 
















We ended up staying until past 10pm, so we are rather tired today! But it was such a great week. We will rest someday! Haha! 

Just keep Swimming, just keep swimming

The boys are taking swimming lessons at WKU right now (at my work). We are doing private lessons together so that Grady will be more likely to get in! Haha. 

It’s helping Grady get a little more confident I think, but it has helped Griffin’s confidence a ton! He still hasn’t gotten the hang of swimming above water, but it gave him the confidence to start trying more. 

Once he did that, he and daddy started working on holding his breathe underwater more at Beech Bend. Within that week he could swim underwater! The lazy river helped because the current gave him a boost. Now he wants to swim all the time! He is like a fish!! 

These pics are from Liam’s birthday party not too long ago, which also helped him get comfortable I think. They sure had fun! Haha! 



So this weekend the boys stayed at my parents and swam there, plus went to my Uncle’s and swam there. They said Griffin stayed in the pool all afternoon! We have an official swimmer on our hands people. Woo hoo! 




Happy Summer guys!
