Over the River and Through the Woods, to Grandmother's House we go...
or in this case...WENT...2 weeks ago (yeah, so I'm a little late!)
We spent 10 days in Michigan with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Dan, Aunt Debbie, Uncle Tad, and Aunt Hannah. What did we do?? Here's a little overview:

We start with another birthday party for LUKE!
Grandma made a DIRT CAKE with WORMS!!!

Playing with his new dinos from Aunt Debbie and Uncle Dan. So cute!

MOVING ALONG...
What's that?

A TURTLE!!
BIG yard, lots of balls means RUN, KICK, THROW, HIT...


Grandma arranged a fun day at a GREAT children's museum in Kalamazoo
puppet show put on by mommy and aunt Hannah - really dumb show!


So, gramps...what are we looking for exactly?I am so cute!
So I'm sure all of you think this is real funny! Well, ha ha! Why do they always dress me up like the girl? Better yet, why do I go along with it?


The Highlight of our trip...
Ethan's first STITCHES!!

We were all cleaning up from dinner, getting ready to leave for Wednesday night prayer meeting when SPIDER MAN aka: Ethan fell from the line of chairs he was climbing across. (He had been told SEVERAL times to stop his climbing) Down he went and hit his head on the edge of the chair. Aunt Hannah to the rescue, lots of blood, and through the tears he cried: "I can't be Spider man anymore!" Grandma took us to the hospital where he was "wrapped up like a mOmmy", as he says, and stitched up. 5 stitches in all. It was funny because we had just seen a mummy ("mommy") the day before at the museum. He was so intrigued how it was all wrapped up. Well, I wish I could say he was ok with being wrapped up...BUT, not so much. He SCREAMED "STOP IT DOCTORS!!" Then, after that did not work he pleaded, "please doctors, will you please let me out of here?" Cute, yet sad. Another page for the ol' scrapbook!
