GG's Daycare

While we were in Chicago, GG was busy taking care of her 3 favorite little boys! They all had a great time and judging from the pictures it is not surprising that Porter cried so hard when he said goodbye to GG on Sunday.

Wedding in Chicago

My cousin Carrie got married in Chicago last weekend and we were there for all the festivities. Despite a lost suitcase and some crazy weather, we had a great time. A HUGE thank you to GG for watching her three grandsons while we went to Chicago!!!!

I'm pretty sure I'm not really related to this guy. He must have been switched at birth

Boys Trip to Alaska

Porter and Rick went to Alaska for a week to visit Rick's family. I wasn't able to go because of school. I'm not sure I can handle them leaving ever again for a whole week! The highlights of their trip include spending lots of time with family, going to the beach, eating strawberries out of grandpap's yard, going on the boat, eating at Bullwinkle's Pizza, and getting scrubs from Aunt Linda that look just like Mommy's scrubs.
