Today we headed back to Tumbleweed park to celebrate my nephew Jude's birthday. Jude is not only adorable, but also one of the best natured boys that I have ever met. You just have to look at him to make him laugh and as soon as he sees a camera he stikes an adorable pose. I know that he and Grant and going to be great buddies and partners in mischief.






Cole the rock climber--Grant the rhino wrangler



After Jude's party, we headed over to Freestone park for more fun at my Dad's office party.  Cole had a blast on the bounce house and was even able to climb on a firetruck for the first time. Grant was happy just to be outside and try to follow his brother around the park. They had some pretty amazing raffle prizes, and all of us won something. Cole won the cake walk and also an art set in the kids raffle. I was hoping for the ipod, but was still excited for a gift certificate to Charleston's. Romi and Jason won a two night stay at a golf resort in Tuscon and Clint and Michelle won seats to the symphony.

Silly cousins 

Grant loved wearing the fire hat, but he kept putting it over his face





 Grant and Aubrey were fascinated by this old puddle-they played together for quite a while until they resumed their never-ending fight over Grandma's lap
