Lou Grant Parent Child Workshop
Braedyn and Silkha helping me fill up one of the water tables with bubbles on my workday.
Bike Day at Lou Grant

I was thankful to not be working in this station on Bike Day. It was madness most of the morning.

Dancing at Uncle Isaac's wedding
Braedyn has one thing on his mind and it is... to dance with those girls. My poor mom was trying her hardest to dance with him, but he had one agenda. Kinda funny to watch. Half way through he even moves in with a hug. So glad he's only 4! Not sure why he thinks falling on the floor is a good dance move. I think Connor Brown may need to teach him a few of his dance moves. Maybe they can trade bmx tricks for dance grooves.
Wedding
Connor B and Braedyn hang'n in the trolly before it loaded up with the bridal party.
Braedyn with some girls from the wedding. He really took to the oldest one in this picture. I got a video clip of him giving my mom the total 'brush off' to go dance with her and her friends later that evening.

Glimpses of Braedyn at Uncle Isaac and Aunt Jana's wedding (thank u to whoever took these photos)
Preparing for his big job.

Getting a pep talk

...and yet another pep talk from the bride's mom (I hope he was listening).

Bring on the party!! Braedyn did his job as ring bearer super well and now it's time to let loose on the dance floor.

to grandmothers house we go...
In another 6 months we will be visiting Vinton, IA when we set off for IA no longer Cedar Rapids, IA. Braedyn will have 4 wheelers to ride, streams to jump and walk in, gardens to plant, tree forts to build, and tons of room to run on their 80 acre farm. And I will have a steam room, some motivation for winter travel to Iowa. If there is ever a state you need a steam room in December, Iowa is it!

Lou Grant Beach Day
Braedyn's preschool took advantage of the beach being 2 blocks away. Friday was beach day!
Splashin around in the waves with some of the girls.

Watching some of the girls pose for their picture. (hmmm... where were all the boys?)

Lou Grant
Hose got turned off, but he needs just.... a little bit more water?
Resourceful or touble maker?
Braedyn's preschool program is winding down. Only 1 month left. He has really enjoyed his first year of school and has learned so many things through a creative, playful way. Being able to be outside for most of his preschool experience has been an added bonus. But summer is a comin so the play will go on!

random bmx
Racin down in Camarillo where we witnessed a 6 year old knock out his front teeth. The kid knocked them clean out of his mouth. Made me very glad we went with the full face helmet. The kid, unfortunately, did not have one on . Very traumatic to the child and me!

Ridin the Santa Barbara track with Nathan Cox. Braedyn is working on recruiting his friends to the sport.
