This little piggy...

Griffin had a really fun time in his sunbeam class.  They learned about food and made this cute little apple pig.  Griffin was so excited to show it to everyone!

Really I thought Griffin was going to want to keep it somewhere special but he had something else in mind.  I made him pose with it before he ate it.

Oh and in case you are wondering he ate the whole thing, apple and all!

I love his "smile for the camera" face!

Parenting: Touching the Hearts of Our Youth

I found this to be very touching.  I think, sometimes, I am guilty of "not being in there"...  I am pledging to be better and to enjoy the moments I find myself in.

2010 Summer Fun

We were so lucky to be able to spend two full weeks together this summer. We spent one week at Heather's house and then the next at mine.  We did all kinds of fun stuff together!

1. Watched How to Train your Dragon (super cute, I might add)
2. Went to two different water attractions
3. Watched movies
4. Took pictures but not as many as my mom would have liked
5. Celebrated Mom and Joe's birthday with a festive "rainbow" theme
6. Sat on the porch and talked and watched the kids play
7. Played at the castle park
8. Midnight Taco Bell jaunt
9. Just plain ole' had fun hanging out together
10. I won an ipad (will do a separate post about it)

It was hard to have everyone leave my house.  It was so quiet and lonely.  I just ended up sulking around for the weekend wishing everyone would come back.  I am happy to report that we are back to our normal routine, except now LJ moved away, so I am still feeling lonely.
