Another weekend of playing on the playset

Now that's a happy kid!

We finally set up the swing set that was graciously given to us by some friends of friends (Grayson loves it)

We enjoyed the wild life of Lake Ada by searching for toads.

We enjoyed the Turtle Races in Nisswa, Mn. We didn't win but we sure had a good time.

Grayson was jumping while cheering on his turtle

Grayson wanted to feed his cousin Breleigh all the time. He thought she was pretty neat.



Grayson loved to torment his cousin Helaina...they act more like siblings every time they are together

There was even time for a game of Mario Kart...it wasn't about who won...it was about who fell off the track more!

My very own "yellow ears"

Grayson usually wears Papa's "yellow ears" but Papa surprised Grayson with his own pair.

It is important to wear ear protection when mowing the lawn, working construction and sometimes just riding around on a bike in the garage.

4th of July Fun

There were lots of activities while on vacation...riding bikes

Tubing on the giant air mattress type tube.

Construction projects

When the days were cooler we played with water on the driveway
