Cousin Love

While we were in MI a few weeks back Naomi and Jack had their pictures taken! As you know there is always one kid who does not want to participate...and that would be OURS! I'm blaming it on the heat because he loves Naomi :) I don't remember how many pictures she took of the two of them but here are four good ones where Jack is cooperating...sort of.

Jack received a very special gift this week. His very own desk! He loves sitting in it and eating his snack. THANK YOU Papa!

This weekend we took Jack to another parade. We figured he liked the first parade so much why not try another one. Jack made the most of our "waiting time" before the parade started. I'm sure the people watching the security cameras were very entertained!

Just taking a break. Check out his new shoes...the kid wears a size 8 1/2!

Getting ready for all the action. The weather was BEAUTIFUL.

What would a parade be without a sucker?? Again Jack enjoyed every lick! The bottom right-hand picture is my favorite...orange drool!

My new "blog" goal is to take more family pictures...Hey at least we tried!

"I had better hang on very tightly to this candy in case I don't see it again!"

...and he did, ALL the way to the van!

Kitchen Update: WE ARE DONE!

Not sure why the lighting is so dark but I wanted to show the green sink base and window trim.

Love the backsplash!

So right behind the kitchen area is a bathroom. Since we pulled out the floors in the bathroom we figured a new toilet, sink and paint would do the trick!

AFTER:

Jack LOVES horses...probably an understatement. He gets very excited when he sees one or hears someone mention one. Here is a quick demonstration of Jack's enthusiasm for horses. After he makes the sound you can stop the video because he just stares into space and Zack tells me the parade route!

Lastly, Jack making his motorcycle sound and being silly!
