Mini Ryan!

The main event in our trip home was the wedding of Ben and Veronica. It was beautiful and a ton of fun. We were having so much fun that we forgot to take that many pictures, but here are a few that we had. Owen was in the wedding and did a great job. He made it down the isle-taking his time, giving high fives, and stripping his jacket. All the kids were adorable.

Visit with the Hollands

Coby, Brady, and Owen

Ryan, Kristi, Coby, and Brady Holland came over for a visit while we were home. All the boys (big and small) had a good time together.

Berry Picking

One of the fun things we did while we were in Ohio was berry picking - Jeannie and I used to go out in the woods every day in the summer and pick wild black berries. This was a bit easier, nice neat rows and no poison ivy to worry about. Owen left the place with a nice stained mouth and hands. He didn't quite understand the not eating them all at once part.

Outside fun

Owen got a mower for his birthday that he loves to push and pull around - he mows the concrete more than the grass at the moment.

Today Owen sat for a good 15 minutes and just played with the flowers and grass.

Pool time

This weekend we had some friends visit out in Palm Springs and we spent all day with them at the pool. Ryan and Owen practiced cannon balls and Owen enjoyed checking out all the girls in their bikini's.

Cake Time!

Mmmmm cake

Owen had no reservations about diving into the cake!
