The Great Outdoors

It is the time of backyard barbecues and campfires...so far we've had a few of each. I am loving being outside as much as possible. I ride my 4 wheeler, push my mower, and get wagon rides from Mommy and Daddy until they drop. Summer is definitely my favorite season right now. We left off with the last blog on the 4th of July. We had a grill out and campfire that night. Mommy bought some sparklers for me too. Here are a few pics:

Grandpa Larson stopped by on Saturday on his way back home from Philadelphia where he was visiting Uncle Josh and Aunt Maria. They just bought a house (congrats!) so Grandpa helped them move and do a little work on the new house. He stayed with us until Tuesday morning when he had to head home to Minnesota. Here's a pic of Grandpa and I:

We were alone for a whole two days before we had more visitors. Grandpa and Grandma Eaton arrived on Friday the 11th and stayed with us until Monday. They brought me a new toy box with shapes to play with. I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I am getting to be an expert at shapes.

Saturday we hung around the house mainly. We did take a quick trip to Cabela's to see the fish though. We played outside and ate dinner on the deck. I even have my own lawn chair for the deck.

On Sunday we went to Heritage Park in Canton, MI where I played at the playground and in a little water park with sprinklers; boy was that water cold. All that playing made me hungry so we had a picnic. Mommy's friend Danny came by to hang out with us and we also ran into another friend of Mommy's from work named Kim. We had a great day full of fun, I look forward to our next trip up there. Here are the photos:

A few other items to note, Mommy and Daddy are training me to feed myself and brush my teeth. both are very fun to do but one can be a little messy.

I hope everyone out there is doing well and enjoying their summer.
Love you all, Luke
