Mexico and the Longwoord Gardens

We had a wonderful 10 year anniversary celebration in Mexico. Below are several pics from the resort we stayed at. When we got home, we took Shane's parents to the Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania since they were stuck at our house with the kids for 5 days. We all had so much fun!!!

Who me, I'm not doing anything wrong?

Maybe if I smile really big, they won't get mad at me!!

Kaitlyn loved the train ride.

Summer times!

Kids and I went to the zoo this past week and then we also got the blow up pool out this weekend. Lots of fun!!!

The princess is 1!!!!

Here is daddy with his big birthday girl!! Notice how happy she is...

Now she is mad because daddy put the princess down....

She soon found the refrigerator and her letters and all was right with the world!!

Mommy took cupcakes to daycare for all the kids and even though Kaitlyn probably shouldn't have any (doctor said one wouldn't hurt her), we let her have a cupcake on her birthday. Below is her getting her first little taste!!

Grayson says, "I can help you with that cupcake!!"

This cupcake is delicious!!!

Here is the new kitchen from mommy and daddy!!

These are just some random pics taken over the last month or so.....

This is called a "Rocket Flyer" according to Grayson.

Notice all the toys she pulled out behind her, too...

Grayson, Benjamin and Kaitlyn playing at our old church in Richmond. We were there celebrating the baptism of Zachary Klettke.

Kaitlyn swimming with daddy for the first time. She loved it!!

Cannon ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - at least that's what Grayson yelled everytime he jumped in the pool.

I think Grayson is part fish...he loves the water!
