Summer Fun!

This summer has been BUSY... Jackson, Burt and Loretta went to visit Great Uncle Marvin & Maryjane in Cedar Rapids, they had fun on their visit! Jackson also went to Brookies birthday party and experienced his first Pinata and ride in the battery operated Jeep, he loved it. Most of all the liked the Little Tikes blow up, pulling himself up the slide. We made our first trip to Adventureland. Marsh had a family day so we met up w/friends Bridget and Scott and their Jackson. There was a wooden sculpture of a Giraffe Jackson so both Jackson's had their pictures taken. The boats were probably his favorite ride as he could put his hands in the water which he loves! We also made another trip to RECESS in Ankeny w/Tyler and Maddie, it's funny he still puts his arms out for mom as he is a little scared of the rides, it was cute. We made a trip to the Iowa State Fair and rode the big slide w/cousin Tim and had his first tattoo, he had to get Iowa as ISU was not doing them this year. We also had a shirt made as I will probably do annually. His favorite part was the sprinklers as he could run free... he loves Water! This weekend we went to the zoo, he loved the petting zoo and feeding the babies. The fish and ducks were a little dangerous as he wanted to join them in the water, to say the least it made me a little nervous! The next couple of weekends will be busy with my friend Rochelle's graduation party earning her masters in Public Administration from Drake, way to go Rochelle. We have a baby shower and Jackson has his 18 month pictures that day as well. Hope all is well, enjoy the pictures!
