Fishing/Bridal Shower

Now that the project is over, me and Grampy can concentrate on fishing. We had to go out far for the big ones.
Everything was good until Mom told me we had to go to a shower. I am like can't I stay here and fish with Grampy.
But no, so here I am at a wedding shower. oh boy, I bet the fish are really biting right now on the cape.
I played with the gnome for awhile until Blade and Cole showed up. Thank goodness.
Bulldozers are almost as much fun as fishing.
Motorcycles are definitely more fun.
Ok, back to the shower this is my second cousin Brittney and my aunt holding Ryan.
I wish I was fishing.
Love Jack

P.S. Oh yea, thanks for having me at your shower Heidi, I really had fun!!!
Good luck Heidi & Wayne!
That Brad Paisley song comes to mind right now.

I'm done working for the summer

Landscaping

Mom, Ryan and I stopped by to visit Grandad at work this week. I was put right to work.
We had to rake all the rocks out of the front yard.
" You missed that one."
After about ten minutes I had enough.
Its a good thing Great Uncle Mark had brought all his toys, because doing it by hand is just not for me.
Ryan and I finished up in no time with the tractor. Would have been even faster if Mom didn't keep getting in the way.
Ryan seemed to like it but he kept falling asleep, so I had to keep one hand on him at all times.
See you all next week.
Love Jack and Ryan

Zia returns

Mom started back to work this week. So Zia is in charge again (she thinks).
When she wasn't looking, I woke Ryan up from his nap and brought him out to watch Elmo with me.
It was kinda hard to wake him up. Do babies know how to fake sleep?
But I insisted he watch with me.


I told him to watch this part, it's my favorite.
You just can't watch cartoons with him. All he wants to do is goof around.
Stay tuned: Wait til next Friday when Grandad finds out Lauren is trying to convince me & Ryan to join the Young Democrats of America. I can almost hear him now, "No Obots in this family!"
See you next week
Love,
Jack & Ryan

Happy Memorial Day

What a perfect day for a parade. My second cousin Halley and I went downtown to watch the ceremonies today

We saw Great Papa riding in a sports car.
Ryan enjoyed the parade as well, not even the 21 gun salute could bother him.
And finally, my Great Aunt Ingrid sent a photo of her family. That's David in the middle, he serves in the Marines.
Ooh-rah
These are some of David's friends also serving in the military
Eligah and Alex

And this is my Great Great Grandfathers' brother Len's
grave site in France. His Spitfire was shot down during WW2

Here is a video to get you pumped up for the veterans.
Have a good week.
Love Jack

Hanging with Auntie Ashley

We went on a nature walk today.

We had to be very quiet, so we could sneak up on the wildlife.
It worked, look what we caught!
We saw turtles!
And birds!
Check out tomorrow for my memorial day blog.
Love Jack

A day with Grammie

Hello everybody, its been a while since I've had a chance to blog. But Grammie came by today and insisted I do an update. Since Ryan has been home things seem more complicated so to get in the mood to blog, Grammie broke out the tequila for Cinco De Mayo. (better late than never).

Ryan seemed to enjoy it more than I did, even though he got a little goofy.

It did make him sleep well, while I finished up the blog.
When he woke I tried to tell him the one about the Rabbi, the Priest and the...... and then Grammie suggested we read him a book instead.

So I read him a book, I'll tell him the joke later when Grammie leaves.

With all that tequila, Ryan could have cared less what we did.


He sure did seem happy today, I don't think he cried once.
Time for my siesta. See you all next week.
Love Jack and Ryan

A quick visit with Grandad

Grandad took Ryan and I for a couple of hours this morning. Not much to blog about, Grandad can't handle two of us right now. Maybe in the future we will do fun stuff again.

He tried to convince Ryan to start his own blog, needless to say, Ryan didn't like the idea.

Love Jack and Ryan 

 

It has been one year

Well it has been one year since I started my blog. But today I have no blog. So maybe next week I will have something good.

A Trip to the Zoo

Ryan, Zia, Mom and me went to the zoo today. Mom has her hands full so more pics with the animals to follow later.

Well here are the pics I promised, I know I told you I went to the zoo, but whoever was in charge of the camera didn't think we should take pictures of the animals.
This is my new friend.

Zia obviously wasn't in charge of the camera

I saw the snake somewhere around this tree!
Ah! finally an animal, so what if its wooden.
