Mike and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on Friday! We spent the afternoon golfing....it was a beautiful day and it was so nice to relax and enjoy each others company:) Saturday we headed to Frankenmuth for the weekend. Every year on Memorial Day weekend, they hold this big dog show/festival. This was our second year going to it. We had such a fun trip. We spent our time watching the "big air" competition (where dogs compete in long jump off the dock), seeing the hot air balloons, eating an amazing chicken dinner at the famous Zender's, shopping at the Birch Run Outlets, visiting the cute little shops of downtown Frankenmuth, playing at Zender's Splash Village (an indoor waterpark), and shopping at the Howell Outlets on the way home. I posted pictures of most of our trip, but unfortunately, I didn't get any pics of the kids at Splash Village! :( I wish I would have because that place is amazing . God has blessed me with the most amazing family!
The only picture I have of Splash Village...It's so much fun!
Breakfast at Splash Village
Jordan loved the big nutcrackers.

As long as she has that thumb and blankie, she's one happy camper:)
The band
This is what they call "the circle of friendship"...
We all held hands and sang songs like "American the Beautiful" and "How Great Thou Art".
"Arrrgh Mate!"
Mmmm...Zender's has the best chicken!!
Jordan was zonked out after a lonnng day!
Here is Jordan on one of his many attempts to escape!
Mike and I get the biggest kick out of Jordan when he walks along with his hands in his pocket. What a little man!
Here we are watching the white peacock.
Iris is in awe of the balloons!

Iris is trying to sneak some water from Jordan's cup before he catches her.
Jordan LOVED watching those balloons "way up high" as he kept saying!

She's on the move!
Iris is 7 1/2 months old now! This past week, she really started moving around. She's all over the place! Here are some pictures of her crawling. She is definitely my adventurous one. She's curious about everything she sees and she will go after it every time.
My next bit of news is that 3 little teeth have made their appearance! I knew one was coming in, but I was quite surprised to see the other two. She now has 2 bottom teeth and one top tooth. This all happened in a week's worth of time. Poor thing!
I've started giving Iris puffs and a few table foods. She loves to try new things. She's tried little bits of pancake, pieces of banana, and ice cream. The girl is like a baby bird when you give her ice cream. It is too funny!
