Elijah's Field Trip

Elijah's class had a feed trip to the Museum of Natural History so Oliver and I decided we would stop in and say "Hi!"

Awe, Oliver is wearing one of my favorite shirts that was Elijah's. It even has a dinosaur on it.

Halloween

Oliver's First Birthday

It's amazing how a year can fly by. It seems like just yesterday I was cradling my little 8lb 12oz bundle of joy. Now I have a crawling all around, busy, busy 20lb bundle of energy.

Isn't he cute?

I went with a Cookie Monster theme. Easier to decorate, ha ha.

He likes cookies!

Happy Birthday, Buddy!

Jonah and Noah Turn 6

My little twinnies are SIX! Wowza!

I was going for a lego head...didn't quite turn out.

Noah wanted Paw Patrol...I did the best I could. I am not a good decorator...but the cake was delicious!

He was getting ready for his upcoming birthday.

Michigan Trip

Jake and I took Oliver to Michigan to visit our family and go to my friend Connie's wedding. 

The first full day that we had, we went with my parents to Frankenmuth. It's one of our favorite places to go as it was the location of our very first date.

Another day we went to visit Jake's Great Aunt Charlene. I think she got a kick out of Oliver.

Of course we had to visit Nanna and Nannu. We always get fed so well when we go. Nanna's soup is amazing. Oliver couldn't get enough. She sent us home with some of Nannu's last cookies that he's made. Nom, nom. So good. 

My Mom and Dad's backyard.

One of the days we went with my sister, Heather, to Ann Arbor. We went to Zimmerman's and walked around downtown. We also went to University of Michigan's stadium. 

One of the reason's we went to Michigan was to go to Connie and Mike's wedding. I've been friends with Connie for 23 years. I was so excited to see her get married.

Before we went to the wedding, we went to see see the Stanley Cup. I think this is one of Jake's highlights.

Connie held her wedding at Henry Ford Museum. It was so beautiful.

We were able to take one the bouquets home. So pretty.

Oliver was not sure of the grass. His body was not super fond. He broke out in a bad rash. But Jake did get some great pictures before we noticed.

We had so much fun with Grammy and Grampy.

This was one of our many trips to Tim Horton's. It was the first one that we gave Oliver a doughnut. I think he liked it.

We love going to Lucky's Restaurant when we are in Fenton. We had to get some steak and crab. So good.

We also like to go to the French Laundry (now The Laundry) and get a real cream soda. 

I think they were worn out.

We went to Cook's with my parents and got some yummy ice cream.
