We had been telling Jude that we will go on the Vista Boat some day.... Well, tonight we saw the Vista boat go by as it does about 50 times a day and we asked Jude if he wanted to go on the VIsta boat, and his reply was a sad, "someday". We felt terrible, so on the Vista boat we went. The ride was an hour and a half. Jude did great for the first hour and the second 30 minutes were not as great....but still fun. I would suggest taking the tour if you have never done it before it is interesting, and great on a nice day.

Weekend at the lake
Here we are at the lake for the weekend. It was so nice to get away, no cell phones, schedules or tv's. It was a perfect weekend. We can not wait to go back in a few weeks!!!!
Driving the Big Boat
Papa and Jude made a great team driving the boat. Jude was more excited about honking the horn, but still and excellant driver.
Fishing buddies
Even though we did not catch a lunker, we did catch some keepers over the weekend. Jude is getting lots of practice casting with his dad.
The Lake Pet
There are a couple of very tame chipmunks that hang out and demand peanuts at the cabin. They will sit on your lap and eat peanuts while you pet them. Jude thought they were so cute and wanted to "pick" them....and he did just that, he picked them up and giggled and let them go.
Paddling down the lake
Jude thought it was very cool to go for a ride in the canoe with Nana and Papa. He had his own paddle and everything.
A plane!
We were able to see a bunch of float planes when checking in to customs on Saturday. Jude was thrilled.
Hiking with Nana and Papa
What a wonderful time we had at the lake with Nana and Papa! We can not wait to go to teh cabin again. I just love this picture, it looks like it should be Rockwell painting.

Having Fun
Jude was having so much fun in the tree, here he was belly laughing so hard, you can almost hear his laughter just looking at the picture. We are so lucky to have such a good and happy little boy.
Up in a Tree
Burke put Jude in a tree...literally. Jude thought it was the greatest and wanted to sit in every tree from the DECC to our house. First the play set, next a tree house.
Jude and Mom
Jude, Burke and I went for a stroll around the canal area on Sunday. It was a really windy weekend and the weather was odd but we took time in the morning when it was still nice to be outside.

Playing in the Pool
Jude really loves the warm weather and playing in his pool. You can tell by the big grin!
This week we found out that we are having another boy. Now I am really going to be out numbered. Oh well, I could care less. We are just excited that so far everything looks good and that our newest son is now a pound, growing and developing just like she should.

Busy
Jude and Rory could only swing with Papa and Nolin for about 30 seconds. There are way too many things to do and explore at Nana and Papa's new house.
Jude the Big Helper
Jude was busy helping out with our latest project, the out door kitchen. Here he is working on the counters with Tom and Burke.

PBS Magazine
Jude is going to be on this month's PBS magazine cover. We thought he was the cutest kid there....obviously we were right!
We had a great Sunday fun day. We celebrated our friend Milan's birthday and the end of another Grandma's marathon weekend. It was a great weekend filled with lot's of friends and family. We made the most out of Grandmas weekend with playing at the whippersnapper races on Friday with Judes cousins and then watching the marathon on Saturday morning. Saturday afternoon we danced at the tents to GB Lighton and topped it all off with a bbq on Sunday. Summer is here and we could not be happier!

Happy Summer is here!
Jude has been really busy playing outside since the weather has finally warmmed up. We love our new yard free of rocks and ponds. Lot's of room to run around, it is the best. Now if we could just keep him from running away from us and into the street that would be even better!
Boys
Some of Jude's cousins came over for a pre-Grandma's marathon party on Friday. We went to the whippersnapper races had pizza and played outside. It was a really fun day for all of the kids. The dads broke in the new keg-a-rator, so it was a fun day for them too.
Baby Cal
A week ago today we welcomed the newest member to out ever growing family, baby Cal. Amanda, Brian and Cal make a beautiful family!

Elmo Elmo Every Where
Jude's Auntie Sweetie sent him an Elmo costume among many other Elmo items from CA. Jude really thinks he is great when he wears it. Thank you for all of the Elmo stuff Auntie Sweetie.
Jude had a great time at the PBS, Kids Club Circus on Saturday. He was so excited he did not know which way to go first. He played games...ok, he walked right in front of the kids waiting to play games, grabbed the toy and ran off to the next event. Oh well, we are still working on sharing. No one said anything about standing in line and waiting your turn. I guess that's next. He went inside a fire truck, played with bubbles, ate ice cream and popcorn and fell asleep in the car on the way home. What a great day!
