For the love of order.

Or no order, in this case. I keep drooling over this picture. Yes, I put my child in the lap of my ninety something year old grandfather while driving. As guilty as I feel about it, I will forever cherish this photo opportunity.  Morgann and Grandpa Bob are getting along fantastic. Added bonus, her and Charlie are buddies, too. Double bonus, she got left for the week because she was being so good!

Farm time! Hot tubs, gator rides, saw dust jumping, bike riding, cow chasing, man cave finding, chicken spying, hard working fun. Mason brought his friend to JJ and Grandpa Dan's over the weekend. Let me tell  you. The kid finally explored and had the kind of dirty fun that I knew he'd find someday. They even let the girls tag along on their excursions!

Both eight year olds went home full fledged gator drivers!

Busted.

The big day was July 4! We hit up the M's game!! Carson loved his first game!

A little Daddy and Mason time before dispatch!

Team Giles!

The real reason that called us to Toledo was Grandpa Dan's 60th Birthday and retirement party! The kids and I picked wildflowers from the farm to make the centerpieces. And although the weed is called pig weed, I think they turned out perfect.

Cheers to my parents! They are the BEST Grandparents! And parents! Thank you for all you do!

PS, I am opting to not include pictures from our shopping trips, destruction derby, fireworks or other gallivants across the farm! One last kid story about this trip coming very soon!
