IOWA STATE Fanfest!!!!

A small part of why I love living where we do, is we can participate in activities such as the Iowa State Fanfest!  We live about 20 minutes from Ames, so attending activities does not take up the entire day.  Graham had a blast!!!

He was impressed with the big screen!

He may have been one of the only children laying on the court.  That's why we love him though...he's very independent and does what he wants to do, even if he is the only one doing it.

Can't leave without a 'clone cone!

Yum!

Ready for tailgating!

Definitely one of the cutest cyclone fans!!

Last weekend's visitors!

We were lucky enough to have one of our favorite people come and visit...uncle Eric, aunt Marne, and cousins Cade, Ellie, Mason, and Hadley.

I think one of uncle Eric's favorite things to do is TICKLE!!!!

The motley crew (minus Landon...he was already in bed!)

Blow up mattress = bouncy toy...they could have jumped on that for hours!

The next morning things were a bit more calm :)

Hot summer days...

...means sharing your ice cream!!!!!

LOVE how sweet these two are to eachother!!!

Time to lower the crib!

Cokes for everyone!!

Pigs at the farm

Graham named him "Stinkerpants"

Thanks uncle Eric and grandpa Bormann!!

Graham turns THREE & Landon turns ONE!!!

I can't believe we have a 3 and 1 year old!!  Here are some moments from their birthday party...

Opening presents at home before leaving for Whittemore!

Cupcake tower!!  Graham was pretty excited about his superhero cupcakes!

This picture makes me want to squeeze him!!!

LOTS OF GIFTS!!!!!

Graham has always been obsessed with gum.  He always wants us to blow bubbles when we are chewing gum.  For the last year, he has been asking for gum and our response was, "When you turn 3, you can chew gum."  Well, I always make good on my promises!  He chews for a couple minutes and puts it in the garbage!  Ha!

Thank you to all who took time to help us celebrate these special boys' birthdays!!
