and Barbara too!!! Today was the first time Babs got to meet Alex!!! The last time we saw her was last May in Cincinnati for her and Jordan's graduation. It's been way too long!!
We started off our visit today by heading to Kampsville for some fish! It was Babs, Thomas, & Alex's first trip on a ferry. Thomas couldn't get enough of the boat. He watched it the whole time we ate lunch. Great Grandma Meehan met us for lunch too. We had a nice visit, and then we headed to Nana & Papa's house. Uncle Jordan offered everyone some of his homemade beer. I only took a sip, not a big fan of ales. Papa, Uncle Thomas, & Daddy all liked it though! He even has a different kind brewing now for vacation next month!
We played outside even though it was ridiculously hot out. The boys had to take turns riding the toys. Thomas was a little territorial! Gabbi & Babara created some amazing desserts out of play-doh. The big boys rough housed the little boys and there was lots of throwing and tossing them back and forth and up and down. The sounds of their screams of delight are something you wish you could bottle up and keep forever. Barbara helped Alex get lots of practice walking today. He's even started pulling up on things the last few days.
We had a wonderful dinner and had lots of laughs. We stayed too late and had a very tired baby on our hands. He didn't even make it a mile down the road. I did manage to get another picture of the last remaining bit of the sunset as we headed out of the driveway. We also watched a spectacular lightening show the whole way home. It's days like this that remind me how thankful I am for such an amazing family!! Sure wish we could do it more often.

Did you really have to include the baby throwing pictures? I can tell Thomas just finished a throwing session with Alex as he is trying to get Alex to do a "Ta-Da" in one of the pictures.
I like the pic of Alex on top of the car looking in at Thomas.
