Father's Day Weekend

Saturday this weekend, Paige came to spend the night with us. We decided to head to port Republic to the beach. The water was a little cold but neither Paige nor Rudy seemed to care.

Sunday we went to brunch for Father's Day with my dad and Bill and Renee.
The fathers.

The fathers and the little ones.

All of us.

The moms and kids

After brunch, we had to walk past the carousel to get to our car, so Rudy and Paige (and Bill) took a little ride.

Father's Day

Father's Day morning we headed out for breakfast at Smithville Bakery, then walked around Smithville for a while. Here the guys pose on the gazebo on the lake.

This one doesn't miss an opportunity to say "Cheeeeeese" as soon as the camera comes out and then tries to get right in front of the lens so you have to take his picture!

Monkey one jumps...

Monkey two jumps...

Monkey one runs... monkey two runs...

Watching two birds fighting.

The geese on the lake included a few furry little ones.

Rudy wanted to go to the arcade but we didn't have any cash for the games. He said he would just pretend.
N had to do the same....

After walking around for a while, the train finally started running. The guys went for a ride. N didn't want to get off when it was over, so I guess it was a hit!

We spent a lazy day at home after that. We set up these tunnels and tents for the boys to play with and they had a lot of fun, especially when we put a tent at the end of the slide!

Rudy has been in Ghostbuster mode and he hasn't even seen the movie! He created his own equipment and costume. One of the tools (I don't have any idea what it's called) is made from an old phone cord.

How can you resist that face?

Just chillin'

Rudy's Ghostbuster tags.

Waiting to grill....

Rudy eventually changed his whole outfit to look more like the Ghostbusters, including snow boots, No Ghosts patches and name tag.
