Brody's birthday weekend!

I totally forgot to put up the pics from B's birthday and blog about my parents' visit that weekend!! It was wonderful. Absolutely wonderful! That whole weekend was such a treat!

On Brody's actual birthday, Friday, the only thing we wanted to do was to have a picnic at the park and play together all afternoon. So... that's what we did!! And then later that evening, we had pancakes for dinner and Mom Meade joined us! Super special!!

Saturday was very special, also, because my parents and my Grandma Sally came to visit for a few days! They got in around dinnertime on Sat and left Monday after lunch. Saturday night, we had a joint party for Brody and my momma, which was a blast! Sunday, we went to church and then to Meat and Greet afterward for lunch. We took naps, watched the cooking channel, and then the Superbowl. Monday was awful b/c we had to say goodbye. But, it was such a fun weekend, and we all had such a special time!!

Lots of pics from that weekend...

Brody's birthday breakfast- pbj and fruit loops:
love these 2! 

spitting together... 

spitting together... 

 and laughing together.

watching the squirrels and the birds that provide endless hours of free entertainment.


Playing together at the park:

be still, my heart 


watching the ducks together.

Talking to the ducks 

 Jasper was "fishing" (aka he put a stick in the water) and was desperately, desperately hoping he would catch a fish like his grandpa.

 swinging- Brody's most favorite activity on earth.


I tried to take a family pic, but the camera fell off it's little tripod, so we got this instead. 

spitting together in the sandbox. 



Our wonderful time at the park had to end in Brody's most dreaded place... the bathtub (aka the torture chamber).

The pancake dinner:

A group shot:
here's the best group shot of all of us. Unfortunately, it's a bit blurry, but that's ok! it still captures the essence!

Saying goodbye that dreadful Monday afternoon:




And Nana had the wise idea of leaving after a "goofy face" picture:
