Landen and cousin Brooklyn playing...

















It was so much fun having Trent and Becky come and visit. They did alot of things while they were here. We went to NYC and saw Mary Poppins on Broadway, went to a fancy resturant over on Park Ave. called Houston's (they serve the best ribs you will ever eat by the way) so if anyone ever wants to come visit we take everyone there. They went to the beach, fishing, farmers market, lots of outlet shopping, mall shopping, Bronx Zoo, etc. The list could have gone on if they would have stayed longer. We enjoyed them though, and hope they come back out and visit in the fall!

Off to the Bronx Zoo



Uncle Trent, Aunt Becky, and Cousin Brooklyn came out to New Jersey to visit for a week and have some fun with us. We took the kids to the Bronx Zoo in NY and was very fun, except for when the weather decided to pouring rain on us. Here are a few pictures I didn't get to take to many because of the rain.

Barnaget Lighthouse

Daddy and I enjoying the water and watching the boats go bye.

Barnaget Lighthouse
We made it to the top and looked out, actually Landen was making me very nervous, even though he can't fit thru the bars - you can say, I'm just a little scared of heights!

We took a little family trip two weekends ago and went down to see the Barnaget Lighthouse. (We have to take advantage of daddy's time off because we don't see him a whole lot.) This lighthouse house is about 45 minutes south of our house and it's fun to go down to the beach and just hang out. So we pack a little light lunch and some snacks and headed out for the day. It was a very fun and relaxing day.

Sesame Street Live!!!

Landen playing with the Elmo balloon, and light up toy at home.
These are dozens of Elmo head balloons, Grandma bought me one, along with a sesame street ball, and a light up toy. Thank you Grandma!






About 4 months back we took Landen to see Sesame Street Live!!! We actually ended up going twice because he loved it so much and we took Grandma Siemers with us once, and then Grandpa and Grandma Mayes with us the second go around. He loves nothing more than his good old pals on sesame street. He was good thru the entire preformance - and focused! Gotta Love it!

Riding my new 4-wheeler!

Look at me!

Barney Birthday Cake!!!






I tried to be a little talented and make this Barney cake from a cake mold. It didn't turn out to bad since it was my first time experience. We just had a little party a few days before his birthday and celebrated at home. Landen was so excited for the Barney cake, but was a little nervous to eat it - but once we got him to try it he loved it! Now he wants cake all the time and he thinks it's his birthday everyday!

Loves his Corn on the Cob!





Whoever thought our little boy would like almost every vegetable that is put in front of him, but forget it if it's any kind of fruit - he absolutely hates fruit!
