Nothing Runs Like A Deere...

We made our annual trip today to the John Deere Pavilion in Moline, IL with the boys'. This has become a late Spring/early Summer tradition for us since Aiden was about 18 months. Every year the boys' appreciate the trip a bit more, but they mostly love just getting up close to their green and yellow machines that they only see from a distance along the highway parked in someone's farm and working in a field. The Pavilion was given a 'face lift' this year so, they had a great new set up and all new tractors! We took so many great pictures, but here are a few! Enjoy!

Hey batta, batta, batta....swing batta!

Here is a video that we captured tonight of our future All-Star Baseball player!

A morning of fun...

Yesterday the Kellbach girls' (Isabella and Evelyn) came over to play in the morning while Jeff and Robin had a Garage Sale! The kids' had a blast consuming an entire bag of Hostess Chocolate Donuts, playing in the basement, making artwork with sidewalk chalk in the driveway, and playing in the backyard in the sandbox and on the swing set. We even ended the morning with a trip with the Kellbach family to the Old Chicago lunch buffet..yummmooo! Here are a few pictures of our morning!

Sorry about the somewhat distorted pictures. Jeff was testing out his new Droid Razor phone camera and I was thrilled that the update that Motorola prompted me to do FIXED my phone (I now have a working camera again and can send a text message!) was the exact same update that BROKE Jeff's phone! How can SMART phones be so dumb sometimes?!? Anyhoo, we were too lazy to go inside to get the camera to get some quality pictures!
