July 2012
Our travel continued in July with a trip to Louisiana. Here, Olivia got to meet a couple more great grandparents, Momom and Popop for the first time. I was very proud of little Olivia - she was quite content to sit on her Momom's lap, which made Momom very happy! I love this picture of Olivia sitting with her great grandparents - they all look so happy!
While we were there, everyone got in their snuggle time. First, Gigi...Cuddle time with Poppy was so relaxing that it put them both to sleep!
As usual, Jack enjoyed lots of outdoor fun at the farm. He showed Poppy and Gigi how good he'd gotten on the Strider bike they gave him for Christmas:
He helped Poppy mow the lawn. I love this photo because it reminds me of how much I loved to ride the riding lawn mower with my Grandpa Dale when I was little.
I found this photo on a CD with some old photos that Tommy's mom had scanned for our wedding. My Grandpa Dale and I over 30 years ago - Grandpa's are the best!
Jack was so excited to head out to the farm with Poppy every morning and sometimes in the evening to feed all of the animals. I love the next few photos of the dynamic duo on the farm:Poppy was so excited that Jack was finally able to right Angel, the pony this time. He was a little hesitant, and the ride didn't last too long, but I'm sure it won't be long before Jack wants to spend every minute with Angel!
This last photo doesn't really fit with any of the others, I just liked it - and I even took it myself!
