4th of July Weekend 2010-Part 1

Oh my gosh, we are so far behind on our blog adventures. I'm going to flashback to 4th of July weekend (insert flashback sequence & music)......

A bunch of the family got together at Grammy & Grandpa Hawes's house and it was a great opportunity for Justin to reconnect with some of the family we dont' get to see very often:
Aunt Gail & Uncle John from the Chicago, Uncle Brian "Bud", Aunt Melissa & Uncle Shane and Great-Grandma Irene. Grammy & Grandpa's house is in the country so it was a weekend full of bonfires, grilling, playing outside & visiting with everyone. Here are a few pics of Justin hanging with the fam.


Here's Justin saying Buh Bye to Uncle Bud as he heads back to Ludington. We're thinking as Justin gets older the 2 of them are going to partake in some shenanigans and nonsense!


Here's Aunt Melissa, Justin & Uncle Shane enjoying the bonfire after the family marshmallow war. Justin was a key soldier in stealing marshmallows so mommy and daddy could reload on ammo.

Here's a cute one of Justin and Uncle John who came to be best of buddies.
Justin and Grandpa were checking out Auntie Melissa's brother's new Harley. We tried to get Justin to take a seat, but he didn't like how loud it was....he was very curious though!

Here's Great Grandma and Justin taking a breather on the porch.


Story time with great grandma!


Here's mama and Justin at Veteran's Memorial Park in Fremont.


The boys taking a quick pic on one of the bridges at Branstrom Park where we went for a nice walk and played on the playground.


My monkeys on the slide.


Here's a pic of the kiddie pool Grammy & Grandpa got him. He LOVED it!


My water baby, er, big boy!
Stay tuned for part 2 of the blog for our trip to Ludington for the fireworks on Lake Michigan!
