Family Vacation Part 2

We all went for a walk in the Glen Miller park. There some nice trails around through the woods.

Jason decided that pushing Eric in the stroller looked like fun.

Ryan leading Nathan up the "trail"

Nathan!!! Are you coming?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Jason was too tired to push Eric so Christopher had to step in for a bit.



This downhill part is pretty easy Grandma.



Grandpa will carry me now....I am so excited I can barely keep my eyes open.

The end of the trail and the end of anything resembling seriousness from any of this herd of boys.



Daddy??? I walked a long way, can you carry me now?



Jon, Linda, all the boys (except Eric) and I took a side path down by the river to skip rocks. Here Ryan has a serious throwing rock. Not sure that it skipped so well.





After a long day on the trail Ryan passed out for a much needed rest.

Eric in his usual position.

Cabin - Summer 2009 - on the boat

Catching up on a big hiatus from blogging...

We went to the cabin for the 4th of July this summer.  As always we rented a boat to go out on the lake - it was a blast!

Here is my cousin Michael

At the zoo with Grandma and Grandpa

We went to St. Louis to see Grandma and Grandpa - and of course went to the zoo

They had 4 owls out on these perches in the children's zoo - they were beautiful

This turtle was going for a walk - and boy was he fast - I now know why the tortoise won the race...

Ahhhh.... on the train!!!

This is one of the "baby" tigers (there are 3) He/She is a year old. Oh my.

Here's mom. She is at the opposite end of the exhibit from the kids. Ha - typical mom :)
