Bunnies

Koty discovered a rabbit hole in our yard earlier this week.
 It has a tiny little opening covered with grass and fur.
 Inside are at least 6 baby bunnies!
 I've been taking a peek every day, watching them grow.
 Yesterday they were starting to jump!
 Koty gets as close as he can and watches them.

Yesterday, when Ben got home from work, we drove to the Elm Creek park to check it out.

 They have a HUGE playground built within the last year.
 Jack had a blast!


 We will definitely be going back on a nice day.

Como Zoo!

Alyssa and I took Jack to the Como Zoo yesterday. It was the perfect day for it! 
 Jack loved looking at all the animals. 
Growling at the tiger
 It was fun to show Jack the animals grandma and grandpa saw in Africa!
 And, he wore the perfect shirt - a sou veneer from Africa.

Mother's Day 2012

What a beautiful day it was yesterday to celebrate mothers day!
Here's how my day went...
I slept over at my parents' house on Saturday night because Ben, Nicole and my dad were gone. My mom, Jack and I woke up early to get ready for a busy day. My dad got home early from the farm and we all hung out on the deck before the Nystrom family would get there. 




First to arrive were Paige, Mike and Wyatt. Then Joel, Sheila, Tess, Cam, Grandma Lois and Sam got there around 10 am. We had a delicious brunch of egg bake, cheesy potatoes, fruit, muffins, donuts and croissants. YUM!

Paige and Wyatt testing out the swings!
So cute!
Jack and Great Grandma Lois
Buddies :)
My second mothers day!
We all posed for various family shots:

My parents got a new camera. I had fun snapping over 200 shots over the course of the day!
Love <3
I made my mom this blue and flower ruffle tote.




Next, the Graham side came over for dinner!


We had a nice time visiting outside on such a wonderful day.

Again, we took various family shots:

At the end of the day, Jack and I headed home to meet Ben. He was up north fishing with his dad and brother all weekend. Boy did we miss him!

Happy Mothers day to all you mothers!
