Last weekend

This weekend the boys and I are a little bit under the weather (both figuratively and literally - will the rain ever stop?). So, here are a few pictures from last weekend. We went to my parents to visit. Their church (and the one I grew up at, was baptised at, made first communion at, married at, etc) was having their annual picnic fundraiser. Several of my extended family members also go there so we always get to visit with even more family. Although my camera was out of reach during most of the day I did have it handy for the ride on the "train". Now that I think about it, I think I posted pictures just like this last year. First, though, is a picture of Alex & Zachary licking the frosting off of beaters as I was helping my mom frost a cake for the dinner. Yum! Alex got to sit right up front next to the mini tractor pulling the train.Then Zachary got his turn along with a stuffed animal he won playing a carnival game.I couldn't leave out a picture of two of our sweet cousins - Mary and Elizabeth.We had a great weekend and the rain stayed away (the ground was still a little bit soggy). We also "won" at the auction a green John Deere wagon and a little kids tool set. Chris took the boys for a walk in the wagon a few days ago and they thought that was such a cool thing. The tools.....well, that hasn't been opened yet and will need close supervision. Alex talks about wanting to help daddy work outside with them. I wonder what he thinks they'll do?
