VISITORS!

I'm so sad that I don't have a lot more pictures to post here. I lost all that I took during Grant and Carrie's trip to Michigan last week during the hard drive crash. Hopefully, I'll have some of them back by the end of the week and I'll add them then! Thank you to Carrie for sending me a few that she took....here they are....

Very cool White House replica temporarily in the

Gerald Ford Museum (definitely worth $7!)

Outside the Museum...in downtown Grand Rapids.
That is the Grand River behind us.

Cool picture of the museum with reflections of downtown.

Waiting for our table at Rosies.

Connor checking out the water....shoeless no less.

Leslie, Scott and Chris got here pretty late on Friday evening and left this morning (Sunday) so Scott could get back to work. Although a quick trip, it was a great visit. With all the extra help I was able to work on the catalog I'm designing for the National Book Network. I seriously spent about 10 hours working on it (at least) on Saturday. (Thanks again for all the help!) I'm just glad I didn't lose a lot of the catalog in my hard drive crash. That would have been a disaster difficult to recover from. Needless to say, I've already backed it up in about 4 different places. :)

Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Connor hanging out with his uncles on the couch.
He never just sits on the couch with us!

With his Uncle "Skeety" (Scott)

Toonces had to join in on the uncle action too. :)

Watching Baby Einstein with Grandma
while mommy works on the catalog.

Swinging at Frog Hollow!

I love this picture of Connor and Chris.
Connor LOVES Chris' hat!

"Hi DAD!!!" (from the top of the big kid's slide with mom!)

Going down the little kid's slide with Grandma!

Another one with Uncle Scott.

Oh, and there were wild turkeys in our neighborhood this morning. I walked outside to get a closer look, but you could see them very well from our kitchen! We have TONS of birds...just wish there were fewer geese. The swans have babies (in the lake nearby)...hopefully they'll come visit soon. I've never seen baby swans before!

Turkeys from this morning....HUGE! 3 guys are showing off for one girl!

Mediocre picture of a pelican...I need to get a good one.
We saw one catch a fish on our walk tonight!

We LOVE duck families! Brian says the daddy duck must be taking a nap...... :)
