COSI and WACO

We headed over to Wyncoop airfield for the WACO fly-in. It was so nice to sit outside, have our picnic lunch and watch the planes go by. Patrick really wanted to get in one(the last time we were there he got to climb in one- why not this time?).

We headed to Farm Days at COSI today. What fun! Patrick got on the riding tractor and said "Let's get this one!"

Cooling off in the fountains.

Madeline, Meredith and Patrick all fit in the cab of the combine.

Climbing in and out of the BIG tractors all morning. Cool!

Getting to milk a fake cow. Patrick and the girls were a little surprised to have water come out.

Ahhh- lifting a car. Pull!

This is what Joslin did pretty much the whole time we were at COSI.

Doomed

Jason left this morning for Project Noah. He will be in Slidell, LA for a week. This morning when Patrick got up I offered him some breakfast. He wanted Cream of Wheat...the kind that comes in those little packets.

Patrick: Have you ever made Cream of Wheat?

Me: Yes, of course!

Patrick: By yourself?

Me: Yes!

Patrick: Without Daddy helping?

Ok, ok. I get the picture. Patrick must think we are going to starve this week. Hurry home J!

Joslin pics

What a precious baby.

I love it when she coos at me!

Life

Pickin' peas.

Would I rather have peas this winter or a little boy that loves to eat them right off the vine?

Patrick and my dad share a popsicle. Yum.

Gramma Mc is such a good sport!

Patrick was showing off his purple tongue so Gramma showed him her tongue too. Love it!

Pics

Jason and Patrick found this box turtle while walking in the back field. How cool!

Joslin is practicing sticking out her tongue. Plus- Patrick loves to have his picture taken!

This large tree had fallen near where the guys hang out when they aren't shooting. It made a perfect fire pit for roasting marshmallows. We were introduced to smores with Reese's cups instead of plain chocolate. YUM!

Adam, Ethan, Savannah and Patrick. Aren't they cute holding hands!

Patrick and Denis chat. Patrick really likes Denis even though we don't get to see him very often. Oh yeah- Andrea went to hang on the swing too but she must have fallen off.

Eleven Years Ago

Eleven years ago. Has it been that long?
Happy Anniversary J!
I love you more.

Mmmmmm

Patrick and I picked these in the rain before breakfast. Yum. Strawberries growing in the front yard. Just delightful!
