Quick & fun trip to MI

We planned this 4th of July trip to Amanda and Jason's a long time ago. Long before we moved, even before Hudson was born and we had no clue we were moving. We were planning it around the 5k in Frankenmuth - a race that Amanda and Jason had done before and we wanted to try out. It was a rainy night and morning before the race...but it let up in time for us to not have rain as an excuse to back out of the race!
Steve and Lornagail (Amanda's parents) took care of all 6 kids during the race. I'm sure they were happy to see "Speedy Jason" cross that finish line in record time to give them a hand.


Here is Amanda and I really talking over the nearly impossible feat of getting in shape and taking care of 3 kids. If anyone has any suggestions we'd love to hear them.
Anna is enjoying baby Hudson. He's 3 months older than their baby Carter. Anna and Madison are totally in love with babies.
Both Marina and Paige couldn't get enough of the Dora Jeep and had a hard time taking turns. I thought this picture of Paige was so cute to put in especially before the next one.
Oh man....not to many girly driving comments please!

It was such a nice 4th of July. Clearly ALL the kids loved having a chance to play a little!

Checking in again and found some fun pictures. The car episode is a hoot. What a disappointment to run into a tree...that takes the fun out of driving. :-) We look forward to a weekend visit from Lisa next weekend. Linda
