The.Weekend.

Sam and I went to Illinois for a few days over the weekend for a bridal shower and I'm just now getting some pictures posted! Sam enjoyed playing outside, going to the circus and playing with his cousins. We had a great weekend.Does this lion tamer remind you of a certain someone from the movie "Dumb and Dumber"?

Sam enjoyed the circus when the animals were out performing but when the people did freaky body bending things, he wasn't much into that!! His favorites were the lions and the four elephants! I remember going to the Shriner's Circus as a kid at the fair grounds and seeing the elephants put up the circus tent. I have a feeling we'll be attending many more times!

The handsome cousins enjoyed playing together for the morning. They are so good with Sam. I am always amazed at how big they are getting too! We then joined Grandma Jolliff, Great Grandma Jolliff and Aunt Mindy for a lunch at Joyce's cafe. Sorry no pictures of the cafe, but the food was decent!! I would definately go back, if they turned the air on:)

Great weekend in Illinois:)

It was a good weekend. Sam is such a fun boy. Those three Jolliff boys look like they could have a good time together. We'll look forward to more trips to the circus.

Love, Dad P

Today was the first day of cross country season for the Junior High team.  The thing about XC is that the work is put in during the summer months with early morning runs, afternoon runs, track workouts, and hill repeats.  All that work starts to become evident during these days when the races start. Jacob woke up feeling excited to get the season started.  Abigail work up at 5:48am to fix her hair and get ready for the bus.  Abram was pretty nervous as he woke up. 5th grade girls The kids ran their hearts out and did so well for the first meet. Jacob placed 2nd for his team and 3rd overall to help the boys varsity team clutch 1st place for Varsity Boys team.  Abigail looked strong and had an overall 4th place finish for the JV girls and placed 2nd for her team. Abram looked blocked it at the beginning but certainly made up for it with a strong ending to finish 1st place in the JV boys race. Let's go Tigers!

On Saturday, Nathan, Heather and Caleb came for a visit.  We had an absolutely beautiful day, and we wanted to spend the day outside.  Some people had recommended Maymont Park.  Maymont is a park that is hundreds of acres with a stone castle and barn, some animals, and lots of space for the boys to run around. Andrew wanted to get his boots wet and Aunt Heather supervised.  I am glad we crated more boots! The walk with beautiful and we enjoyed visiting along the way. There was lots of rock climbing... and lots of goats! Jacob and Caleb did a great job riding around in the strollers, but needed some time to stretch too! I love this picture of Nathan and Caleb.  He is such a great daddy and I love to see him with Caleb. Sam enjoyed a cigar at the park too.  (I joke!) The little babies ate some grass. Andrew found the cows and wanted to pet them. Sam, Andrew, Nathan and Hap found a great rock to jump off of.  Sam was fearless and surprised u...
