MN Memorial Day

Aunt Carol. And Big Bird and Elmo. Thanks for the balloons, Aunt Annie! We abused the h*ll out of them all weekend!

The park.
Sliding with the Bibs.
Daddy and Bibby laughing it up.
Jumping for cars.
Babee & Bibby.
That's right, it's been 5 years of wedded bliss with this stud.
Bibby behind bars. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come...
Playing cars with Baba.
Squeezing into the toy basket. Probably just to keep the girls from getting to it!
Lyla "boop"ing Evan.
The girls.
The gnawing girls.
Andie and Lyla.
Dude.
Ice cream cake. Mmmmm.
Hanging with Geegs.

Lyla with her guys.

The Bibby with her #1 guy.
It wouldn't be Memorial Day without a tornado warning and subsequent hide out in the furnace room. Bibby enjoying her new Camelbak water bottle.
Popsicles in the furnace room.

Evan (mini Joker) and his first handful of hail.

Driving the boat.
Heading back to BabeeBaba's house.

An Eventful Early Week!

Fittingly for this picture, Hollan now snorts when she is super happy.

We'd like to thank the American Express Corporation for sending Joseph out to AZ every couple weeks! (And I would like to add a disclaimer about Evan's socks and sandals...he styled himself)

Buds. Before bed, Evan said he didn't want Joseph to get in his car and go home :(
Dudes just dude-ing out.
Daddy brought the race track out this morning. Look at how tickled Hollan is to be hanging with the boys!
Just relaxing this afternoon....
I see a roll!!

Then it all went downhill...Bibby was standing next to the fireplace and lost her grip, bumping her eye on the edge as she went down. I was actually holding her hand when it happened and I just wasn't fast enough to prevent her fist shiner :(

I tried to get a good shot of her eye without much luck. But at least you can see how awesome her hair is these days.

This picture is for those naysayers who think I edit all of Hollan's pictures to enhance her blue eyes (Brian). Boom.

Weekend Pics

It was another crazy busy weekend so not too many pictures to show for it. But I did manage to get some picniking in there...I think Brian is looking into photo editing rehab facilities.

The boys went to the park on Saturday afternoon.

Then Daddy and Hollan had some more QT on Sunday.

Dinner in his pjs after swimming.
We're off to MN on Wednesday so stay tuned!!

Weekly Pics

She has dimples on her thighs. I. Love. It.

On the menu: turkey dogs, carrots, black beans and pasta. And lots of it.
As you can see, Hollan is in to EVERYTHING these days.

Evan's new full time job is making sure Hollan doesn't A) look at any of his toys B) touch any of his toys and C) put any of his toys in her mouth. His new part time job is making sure she doesn't do any of the above with her own toys. So, we're busy around here.
Here she comes....
Stopped for a snack.
Boom. Nailed it. Standing again.
One of the rare occasions when they are playing together harmoniously.
Giving Daddy a schnuggle.
Whipping up a little ice cream cake for breakfast.
I mean...come ON!!
