Thanks to everybody who made my 30th a special weekend. I look forward to this next decade!

how sweet that they get to grow up together in this town

a wonderful birthday lunch! the boys loved looking out at the boats, birds, and the bridge.

After a great stay at the beach we were reunited with Levi. So fun to be with him... he however was distracted by the birds at Bluewater!

Our parents watched all three boys while we celebrated. Thanks GaGa and Papah'

Helping me celebrate!

Thanks Brandon for a great weekend!

Our Mid West Trip!

These are my cousins; Eric, Megan, and Sara. We were able to say good bye to Megan as she started her freshmen year at Indiana University. Levi enjoyed meeting and playing with all three. Eric also played piano with Levi. It was a great trip seeing all of our family. Thank you to each person who made it so special!

We ended our trip back in Indy to visit with my dad's family. We had a wonderful time at Uncle Paul and Aunt Anne's and loved the family dinners. Our trip began at Grandpa and Grandma's and we were sad to say good bye.

A family pic by the Stillwater Creek down from my grandparents house. Levi loved looking at the creek but he wanted to get back on the tractor.

Levi also got to ride on Grandad's tractor around this home. He loved going down the road. Do you think they look alike?

I don't think we will find a tractor like this in Wilmington!

Pure joy.

Uncle Scott then brought out his big tractor and Levi loved it. Then he hopped off and let dada give him a ride. Levi kept flapping his arms in excitment.

He enjoyed the horses but he kept looking for the tractors!

We went over to Uncle Scott's and Aunt Tonya's farm. This was the farm that my mom and Scott grew up on. We enjoyed visiting and showing Levi around. Here Levi had his first horse ride! My cousin Erin gave Levi a great ride on Jack.

Levi loved the kitty kats at my their house. He kept saying hey kitty cat... this cat was really patient with Levi.

His new tractor also became his new walker.

How happy does he look?

Levi loves his new tractor that Grandad gave him. He thought he was pretty big!

Our next part of the journey was Ohio to see my grandparents. Brandon and I enjoyed our first early morning there when we joined Grandad at this morning spot... Buffalo Jacks. We loved meeting his friends and sharing a cup of joe. Since Grandad retired he has gone there almost every morning. We loved it.

After visting the Adams' we went to see my cousin Maggie and her husband Jorge. We loved visiting their house outside of the Kentucky horse park. Levi loved their animals. We enjoyed seeing them.

This morning was a high light for Levi and his love for tractors began this day. He loved riding on PaPaw's 1954 tractor.
