Labor Day Weekend

Did you miss me?  I know … it’s been awhile.  But Mia has been growing like a weed and I figured we had better post a few pix!  This afternoon we went to a park in Centerville, OH, and had a picnic!

Here we are as a family.  We figured we had better get this shot first because if we waited, the kids would just keep getting dirtier!

Here is Mia, mom, and cousin Hannah hanging out, sitting on the logs.  Notice the hand-truck in the background.  My sister-in-law is about 12 months pregnant with her tenth kid.  That’s how we got her in and out of the woods!!!

Gotta love the Lukster!

Yeah, I wanna be a rock star …

Jake, Josh, and John … the Three Amigos … Or triple threat, depending on how well you know them!

I am the Fire-nator!  And, no, we don’t let our kids play with fire.  Well … maybe we do, but NOT OFTEN!

And what are THESE two up to?  Nick and Nathan … just chillin’.  Notice the rather large pregnant lady in the background?  Remember the hand-truck from earlier?  Now you’re getting the picture …

Kenna spent a fair amount of time tending to the frog that she caught.

And Uncle Chris helped Nick catch a HUGE fish.  OK, not HUGE, but Large.  Well, not really Large, but …

After the party, we came home and Mia decided it was time to be a little silly.

Just a boy and his dog.

Every night, Mia takes her little Baby, who we have named “Chop,” lays down in your arms, and sing’s “Jesus Loves Me.”  It really is about the most precious thing you could ever see.
