Another edition of the old favorite….
Way back when, I used to take pictures of cats. Lots of pictures of Ernie floating around. I’d bet this is the first blog appearance of Madison (near the box) and Marino (under the chair).
Cpher in the early morning….Marino under one arm, Wiley soaking up the attention by his side….
Spent a long day out at Selfridge a few weeks back….didn’t get home ‘til almost 8 after leaving pre-dawn. The lone highlight was at the end of the day, when all of the A-10’s came back to the base…..you can see one just about to land. We were about 1,000 feet from the runway….
Iphone pictures suck when zoomed in…..there’s two of them landing side by side here….
Matthew rocking his new TNT gear during the rain delay at the Challenge Cup; we’re at Dick’s buying cleats….
Mmmmm….BBQ Fritos….I forget what store Suzanne was in but she happened to look down and magically, she found the mystical, wonderful, totally awesome BBQ Fritos stocked! Boys (and Dad) very happy with this development
This is Henry….you may have seen him in countless soccer pictures and video from last year. Matthew and Henry are thick as thieves. Henry has an older brother, Sam, who is year older than Christopher. If you put the four of them together, the thick as thieves motif is overpowering. Very scary……
Anyway, Henry and his mom joined us for our yearly pilgrimage to the county fair
Up they go, down they come….
Boys begged to do the bungee-trampoline thing…..that’s Kevin in the foreground and the kid attempting (but I don’t think pulling off the flip on this attempt) in the background is Matthew. He did pull it off later…..
Christopher just went up and down a lot….
More Kevin and Matthew….
We’ve never stopped to watch the demo derby or off-road race before….we did this time. A lot of mud, broken down cars, and bugs…..and Matthew and Christopher loved it…
Lights on at the fair.
Of course, not trip to the fair is complete without bringing home fish; we know better now and have the water sitting out to remove the chlorine even before we go (read on a Garrett-Fincke blog that they didn’t do this and had dead fish the next morning….we’re old hands and learned that lesson years ago).
Anyway, none of this group made it past day 5…..and nowhere near our record for a fair fish, three years for Mary.
Went to Lake Lansing a few weeks back to picnic for dinner and swim……took this photo of the family as I walked up.
