Fourth of July

We are so happy to hear that everyone had a wonderful 4th of July!! Again, Grandma Happy 90th birthday!! We had a wonderful fourth of July as a little family, but did think of all of you and how fun it would have been to be surrounded by family. Here are a few pictures we captured that day. Enjoy!!

Starting our day at the ward breakfast, we enjoyed meeting people, eating, and watching our little parader. :)

From there we had a family day with a family nap, games, and BBQ. The end of the day found us at the Air Force Memorial with hundreds of others ready to enjoy the fireworks from DC. Well long story short, everyone left early because the smoke stuck making it impossible for us to see. So, we sat on the trunk of our car while people waited in line to get out of the parking lot, and enjoyed a show that was coming from the direction of Alexandria. It was so much fun, and Brenden loved watching the fireworks.

WE LOVE YOU!!! Hope you had a wonderful fourth too!!

Brenden's Laughter

We enjoyed a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend, and loved having Emillie visit with us!

Brenden is growing up so fast, and is such a little man!

Brenden's Sweet Tooth

Brenden loves Grandma's frosted brownies as the video will speak for itself.

Big Boy Brenden!!!

Our little family is doing very well!! My tummy begins to grow with each passing week, and we continue to get excited for our little one to come this July. We are now in the home stretch as we have just hit our 30 week mark.

Frying Pan Farms

Brenden loved all of the things he saw at the farm. The animals were use to people and children, and so he was able to pet them.

One of his new favorite games is ring around the rosies. He also likes hide and seek, freeze dance, wrestling, and of coarse - anything that has to do with a ball. If we ask him to, he will now sing us a song - although we don't know what he is saying he is practicing for our Toone quartet.

Late Easter Update

We are now 26 weeks along, and life is great!! We are excited for our little arrival this July, but love every moment we have to watch Brenden grow. His personality continues to shine through with each day! It is so fun watching him change and being a Mom and Dad.

DC is amazing. We just had the Cherry Blossom Festival, which was beautiful! A way to describe the beauty of the blossoms would be an image of pink cotton candy against the brilliant green of other trees.

The following videos were taken at Easter time, and so they are a little old - but still good. I think we are a little bias in that we love our son. :)
