Indiana

In July we had the great pleasure of travelling to Indiana and spending a long weekend with Granddad Bob. He was all ready for 7 of his 9 great grandchildren to come and play at his house. He met us with a whole table of snacks...which Emory and Bailey promptly set to eating up! I think the very best part of the trip was just being with all our extended family playing and enjoying each other. Thanks Granddad for allowing us to come!

Bailey and Rob had a wrestling match...not sure who was having more fun!
See the look of concentration on Morgan's face, Uncle Rob has it too...
Olivia likes to change the rules to the game to her advantage...
she is smart too, they don't realize she is doing it for a while...
I think they played board games every night.

I don't think so many adults have counted to 7 so many times...

We were all doing head counts with the kids in the pool...

Eating outside is always a great idea!

Morgan learned to jump off the diving board and swim to the side

by himself....just have to take off the goggles first....

Emory found the goggles!

Olivia didn't like getting her picure taken,

she was ready for board games while the others were still swimming.

snack time

Bailey is looking good in Alyssa's pink life jacket.

I think he wore it as much as she did...except

for the one time he forgot he wasn't wearing it and jumped in!

this is how a princess jumps...

She took great pleasure in shooting Granddad.

Gotcha !
