NY 2010

It was a long flight out there with a three hour lay over in the Atlanta airport.  Wesley sacked out while we were walking the leisurely mile from one gate to the next.  
Julia finally fell asleep on the last part of our flight from Atlanta to Buffalo.
Doughnuts from this delicious bakery in Arcade.
Gotta get the haircut from Grandpa Joe.
Samuel
Even Miles, who for some reason hates getting his haircut, will smile during a haircut when Grandpa Joe's the barber.
Julia and Lindsay having fun playing in the "crick" behind Grandpa's shop.
I know it's sad to take a picture of a crying baby, but I just had to get a picture of him before church in this cute outfit that used to be his Daddy's.
Uncle Kevin manning the grill with Grandpa's supervision.
Samuel and Calvin
Lovely Lynette
down by the lake
I did not even know someone did this to him, until I was looking through the pictures after we got home.  It was most likely on Michael Jackson.  I hope it wasn't too loud.  Eeks.
My two thumb suckers.  The one on the right is supposed to be a reformed thumb sucker....sigh.
Having fun on the lake
Aunt Sandi with Julia on the boat
Watching the action
How I spent most of our "vacations" this summer: on the sidelines snuggling an adorable baby
more fun in the lake: Shaylyn, Lindsay, Julia, Tristen
How much more classic summertime can you get: fishing with Grandpa
Our friend, Raymond, hadn't been swimming in decades.  Here he is attempting the tubes with Samuel.
More tubers.  This picture cracks me up, because you can see the two cousins with the way curly hair: Lindsay and Nathan.  Where did they get such curls?
The on-lookers on the boat: Shaylyn (totally sacked out), Julia, Tristen
The reason we all gathered
The Happy Couple  I'm so grateful to them for setting such a good example of love and respect for fifty years of marriage.
on some waterslides:  Julia, Miles, Samuel
on the slide at Arcade Park
Even with all the fun things we do, the kids always insist we go to the Arcade Park.  It warms my heart a little.  It is, after all, the park their Daddy grew up playing in.
Beautiful sunset out the plane window on the flight home
Wesley passed out in the stroller again.  This time on the way home.
