Lots of time with the birthday girl - Cia!!!
At Grant's Farm (out of order)
At the big birthday party!
Fishing with Pop & Great Grandpa. Tucker caught THREE fish... but didn't want to touch them!
Zoo train engine.
At Grant's Farm with Deena & Darin's kiddos, Andrew & Adam.
We've been going to the beach a lot lately... I vowed to go once a week and we are pretty close after last week. While Kyle went to Canada fishing, Tucker & I hung out down at Kyle's mom's house at the beach all week. The picture above was Memorial Day at Plantation Beach Club. It was a gorgeous evening and a fun atmosphere!
This is Tuck at the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club... he only wanted the pool, pool, pool. Apparently the waves are "scawy." This place has perhaps the best atmosphere anywhere - with all the pools looking out over the ocean. We spent the week swimming and playing at eating at Mimi's! We did have some withdrawl problems after getting that much Mimi time... Tucker did not want to go back home to the real world!
Kyle, Tyler, Davis & Tut had a Day-O-Fun that included golf and eating and eating and bowling.
A couple weeks ago, Tucker fufilled a dream... we rode the Riverside Trolley on the other side of the river from us. They are brand new, extremely well air-conditioned & very fun for an almost 3 year old. We may be doing this every other hot day this summer! It takes you from a 5 points in Riverside, through all of downtown and back around.
Highlights of the weekend included Patrick's Band Concert. Here, Tuck & Sean head in to the auditorium together.
Patrick just before his trumpet solo.
Major highlight: Riding the train from LaGrange downtown!
Downtown with Sean, Grandpa Mike & Patrick.
Before the big baseball game Saturday!
We went up for Kyle's best childhood friend, Maura's wedding. It was so great to see everyone Kyle grew up with in LaGrange again. It was a gorgeous... and so much fun!
One last family pic in the yard before we left.
I stayed an extra 24 hours to visit Keri & Alec downtown and then spend the day with Julie and her twins in Glen Ellyn. It was fantastic to catch up and see their worlds! Bill, I know you will comment on this: I REALLY missed seeing you. It was the disappointment of the trip. Seriously. This is Kyle & Ellie at almost 2... they are so, so sweet!
We threw a shower for sweet Tara who works with us at Sharp & Sally -- she got married last week. Below is Calvin & Tucker who were there by default, but had a fun time playing with each other.
Teddy & Tucker lovin' each other as usual.
Gangsta boy.
The Southside Methodist Preschool Spring Program.
More car washes...
The car wash below is when he puts the beach towel over the dining room table so it hangs down and then goes underneath with his truck. He usually pulls the towel with him. And he has another paper towel washing the steering wheel. His obsession is as strong as ever.
Tucker singing Happy Birthday to me. Loves Mimi's birthday hats!
Tucker continues to never sleep in the same place twice. Below was during his bout with the stomach flu... he walked past Kyle and put himself to sleep up in our bed. We had to go in and protect it from throw up with multiple towels... poor guy!
Above: He had been asleep for over 2 hours like this. What is that?!
Aunt Jess & Livvy love!
Kyle will kill me, but while Jess and the kiddos and I were hanging out, Ben and Kyle went to a retreat. Kyle decided laying out without sunscreen for several hours was a good idea. His gross misjudgement must be documented. There were blisters and all sorts of bad stuff.
Tucker was enjoying this photo shoot more than his cousin.
And Kyle's Aunt Diann and Uncle Bill brought his cousin Emily's children down to visit from Indianapolis! This is Noah & Lily. They are here for the week and have been SO sweet to Tuck... he has had a blast with them!
Nan just went back to St.Louis yesterday, but we want to wish her a Happy Birthday today!
