WoWza!!!

Well, we've been off for quite some time--lost another camera. Not me this time (thank goodness)! But, we have a new one and we are now back to blogging.

Things have been pretty busy around here. Busy with ecfe, playdates, library, park visits, our little pool, visits with the grandparents and of course, spending as much time as possible all together just hangin' around!

Lots of random pictures...

Cash is still thinking his brother is the best person in the entire world. Dane and Cash love to smooch one another and I find it absolutely beautiful!

I had to put sunblock on Cashie's head because he won't keep a hat on. It's funny. Dane loves hats and has since he was little-little. Cash greatly dislikes them. Anyways...his hair is rather long so with the sunblock in, he has a sa-weet mohawk.

Dane being himself.

Cash crashing our game of Candyland.
Ugh.
It drives me crazy that we can't really do anything when he's awake, but his face is so cute that I'm only crazy for a few seconds.

Two brothers wrestling.


This past weekend, we went to the Father Hennepin Festival with some friends. We had a great time at the carnival. Games, rides, curds. The parade on the other hand...

Dane driving a car at the carnival.

This little guy was obsessed with the games. Luckily we had Daddy along who is patient and willing to play every game with Dane. I think it was worth every dollar (and a lot of dollars were spent) to watch Dane's concentration (game) face while playing and then his excited, smiley face when he won a prize. We now have quite the collection of junky fair prizes if anyone is interested.

To me, Ross is superman. He is very strong and very buff!!! Here is my superman trying to ring the bell with a sledgehammer. He didn't ring that bell, but he sure looked good trying.

Ross, Cash, Dane, Matt, Isabelle and Gina ready for the parade.
Little did these smiling faces know that the parade was going to be so bad. Really, the worst parade I've ever seen. We left halfway through. It was bad.

Isabelle didn't really seem to mind the cruddy parade and wore a cute smile on her face the entire time we were there!

Cash did so great but was up waaaayyyy past his bedtime. Here is Daddy trying to keep him happy. He was asleep when his head hit the stroller and we started to walk.
All that fun can really wear a kid out.

Another random of these funny boys. Right before I took the balls away and deflated the car. It had become a hazard.

My little pig-pen after eating some ice cream at Grandma Tammy's.

Sunday, we went out on Grandpa and Grandma Greenwald's boat. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. Cash wasn't a fan of the boat, but still proves to be a fish in the water.

Ross and Grandma Lynn.

Cash-man digging in the sand. Every time I turned around, he had another mouthful of sand.

Dane and Grandpa Greg had a great time building a sandcastle. Two seconds later, it was destroyed by Dane the dozer.

Helping drive us back to shore!
We had such a great time and can't wait to get out again. Hopefully soon!

The little pool was like bathwater after having sat out in the sun all day. Here is an evening romp before dinner. I can still hear the giggles.

Lastly, my little helper doing one of his jobs. Watering (or in this case) spraying the plants--in between an outdoor game of uno. Actually we played three games, and I won zero. Hmpf.
