Jeff and Heidi's B-day dinner

Every once in a while we get to go to dinner just with our kids- our Adult Children. It is very nice to be able to go just as Adults without the distraction of the Grand kids.
We went to Ruby River to celebrate birthdays and had a great time...

Heidi and Chris

T.J. and Dixie

The happy group....

The only couple missing was Tim and Holly and we will make sure we do plenty of that when they are here- Next Month! We missed you, can't wait to see you! We missed Taylor too :)

We took Mom and Dad out for a day boating with the grand kids and we had a great time!
Lance and Cessna were so thrilled to have Grandma and Grandpa there to play and see them swim and tube. Thanks again for spending the day with us :)

Gateway Birthday Day

Today we went to the Gateway to celebrate my birthday with my kids and Grandkids.
First we rode the train down town. Then we played in the fountains. After that we had lunch at CPK, and played around in the misters they have spraying outside.
Then we took a long walk to Jeff Hein's art studio to visit him for a while. We rode that tracks back home and spent some time at Mom's while Cessna learned about her garden.
It was a great day! Any day you are getting wet is a great day! :)
