Barrett & Natalie's

Only Barrett would do this! Braden loved it!

Thanks to the Cohens for a fun evening!

Happy 70th Birthday Grandma!

Silly Daddy

4th of July

Swimming at Ruth Ann's

Braden's new favorite place.........

I think he will be a roller coaster lover like his mommy and daddy! He just needs to get a few inches taller!

Braden's Style

He's showing us his big muscles! Do you like the snow boots with the red underwear? I had to repeatedly convince him for many days that snow boots were not a good idea on 90 degree days. Fortunately, he is now over his snow boot phase.....at least until winter I guess. And then he'll probably only want to wear his Crocs!

Butterfly House

The really creepy thing is that this roach exhibit is open on the top.......Yuck!

Braden was pretty funny here, he loved watching the butterflies but did not want them to touch him. He will touch ants and worms but for some reason a butterfly is scary. Hmm...

St. Louis Trip

While visiting my brother we went to Grant's Farm, which is a lot like a gigantic petting zoo. The admission is free AND you get two rather large "samples" of beer at the end of your trip (they are owned by Anhauser Busch). Why don't they have a place like this in Cincy for playdates??!! Ha ha!

Blue.....

It's amazing how much joy a blue tongue can bring!

Thaddeus Rex

Concerts have definitely changed over the years! We went to Thaddeus Rex with our friends Nikki, Jeff, Jacob, and Lucas. The kids loved rockin' out!

The Zoo

Kaylee and Braden were both brave enough to pet that snake.

Braden's Big Boy Furniture

Braden loves his big boy bed! So much that he usually stays in it!

He had so much fun "unloading" the truck.

It wore him out though.

He could have played with Grandpa Gene and that little door all day!
Thanks for the furniture Grandpa Gene and the special delivery. Braden is always available as a delivery boy!
