Labor Day

Aunt Chell, Keira and I were able to travel up to NY for Labor Day weekend and had a great time! We saw Mimi (!) and PaPawwwww(!). We were also able to see some hose fights, unique to the town of Greene, a parade, some fun rides and fireworks. Here is a glimpse of our weekend. :) I'll try and get the rest of the pix up on our Picasa site soon.
Keira loved eating PaPaw's tomatoe's right off the vine!

Here are the hose fights right in the middle of town. 2 teams, a high rise wire, a ball and a whole lot of water!

Keira really seemed to enjoy putting rocks on the swing. Such a great 'busy time' activity.

Chell and Keira loved their tractor ride!

Keira also loved swinging in the air chair! "Again! Higher!"

Just keeping things updated

Last week was a busy one for us. Jason continued to get the computer labs ready on campus, new students arrived Friday and classes began yesterday! We were also able to visit with some great friends, the Fry's! They came thru H-town on their way out to CO. It was a great time of food, fellowship and friends. :) Keira continues to be everywhere and into everything. It's hard to believe that she's coming up on the big #2! It's been great seeing family and having them see just how precious and smart she is! Our next adventure leads us to NY for Labor Day weekend!

Keira continues to be her cheesy self :)

Family Weekend

Last weekend Jason and I traveled up to MI/OH for a much needed break from the 'madness' of work. Jason, not me. Keira got to spend lots of time with cousin Annika. They did SO great together! Had so much fun :) It was hard to come home. Here are some pix from the weekend.

Let's hold hands!

Two strawberry's in a swing :)

Uncle Nate had to try it out too!

Annika on the double swing.

Keira on the double...they did great :) Looks like we need to get a swing set of our own!!

Zoombezi 2009

This was the second year we were able to go to Zoombezi Bay! I wondered how Keira would do with the water park again - as you can see - it took her a little bit to get used to it. At first she wouldn't let go of my hands, didn't want to be left alone. But by the end of it she was laying on her belly, blowing bubbles, and having a grand old time!

Not sure about this whole water thing, Mom.

Ooohh bubbles! She actually ends up sucking in the water instead of blowing air out.

What are you doin' over there?

And of course..."cheese!"

Silly Faces

Keira and I just traveled to Columbus last weekend and had a good time w/ Nanna and Chell. Pictures from Zoombezi Bay '09 yet to come. Here are some funny faces from Keira. She's got quite the personality :)

Grandma glasses that we used to play with growing up.

Peek-a-boo I see you! She put these on her head all by herself. Even kept them on for the picture.
