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!

Braden's 3rd Birthday

Daddy, Braden, and Aunt Tracy admiring Natalie's alligator cake.

Like any good boy, he loves gadgets! This was all he asked for on his birthday.
