Melville Memories!: May 2011

Ethan and his friend Audrey partaking in some Easter Festivities! Thank you Kroegers for the invite!

Ethan states "Audrey is a special friend, not like my friend Justen, because Audrey is weird like me!"

He is learning that it is valuable to have friends that bring out the best in you!

The Egg Hunt...both of them would pick up the egg and shake it to see if it rattled. If it didn't rattle, they would put it back as they thought it was empty. Smart children, embarrassed parents!!!

House progress!

Daddy and Ethan peeking out of the second floor!

Ethan in his bedroom doorway! He has picked 3 rooms for his bedroom, but we think he is settling on this one! Orange walls here we come!

First floor! I am standing just inside the back door with the mudroom to my left! Grant is taking the picture from our dining area.

Can you guess where I am? Can we say BM in the first floor bathroom! (And we wonder why Ethan is so WEIRD!)

Easter Morning!

The easter bunny (Grandma Shisha) knew just what Ethan would love...yes, ORANGE peeps!

The Easter Bunny (Grandma Shisha again) also knew that Ethan doesn't like to waste his time on bad tasting jelly beans. He goes right for the good stuff! He is also like this with normal food. I just might have a child that is going to be ordering the most expensive steak on the menu in his teenage years!

Found this on Chinook! Can dogs be Christian too?

Easter was extra special as Garrett met the Great Grandparents for the first time! Great Grandma Louise is looking as beautiful as ever (I pray for her genetics, hoping to look this good at 88!) I wonder what name Garrett will call her as Ethan calls her "Okey Dokey"! I am sure she will have another silly trick up her sleeve to adopt a different name!

Garrett being surrounded with the love from all three Great Grandparents.

Great Grandpa Jerry! Both loving to snuggle!

Great Grandma Carmie with Garrett!

Uncle Brad playing baseball with Ethan! The grass stains in Ethan's dress pants were worth it!

This picture is actually taken for my niece Catherine (now 11) as my sister took this picture of her in this very same basket (see attached picture). Garrett wasn't looking it as much!

Grandma Shisha can really get Garrett to respond to her!

ROLE REVERSAL

"Hey Big Brother, I am the one who's suppose to be taking a nap during the day!"

Thank you Great Aunt Sue for the cute outfit! I have already worn it several times!

Check out the red in his hair!

First Walleye Festival

Garrett with Papa and Shisha at his very first Freeland Walleye Festival Rummage! They had a quick moment to take a picture as there are thousands of people that walk through the garage within 3 days to rummage! I love watching all the people and my Father BS with people at his tool table as he sells so many tools that are foreign looking to the majority of people!
