And we're off..............

We are ready to face the road once again.....this time with our 80 lb. dog in tow as well. The 12 (and then some) hour drive will be quite a challenge we are assuming but we are staying positive. Our first stop will be Colorado to finally meet Jace's new cousin Keenan and visit Alisa, Eric, Maveric, and Sasha. Then it's off to South Dakota to see Great Aunt Rita and let Ozzy run till he can't run anymore!! Our plan is to wear Jace out before the drive so we have been staying as busy as possible. Mommy must admit however she has been somewhat of a slacker in the picture department! Saturday was the annual Sturgis Falls so Jace was able to attend his first parade--Mommy took no pictures. Saturday night was Jace's Great Uncle Keith's surprise birthday party--Mommy took no pictures. Sunday Jace got to go back to Sturgis with Davon and Haley and watch Chinese Dancer's in the kids tent. He loved the bright colors and thought about taking up karate in the future. And Mommy even remembered to take a picture!!

This week has been great weather (although a little warm) so Jace has done what he loves most--play outside.



He has also been working on 'Mommy hugs' which she LOVES!

We are not sure if Jace is disco dancing here or just reminding everyone that he is #1?????

The rest of the week Jace has a visit from Grandma (so she can get her 'Jace fix' before our trip) and a trip to the pool. Hopefully by the time our loooong drive comes he will be pooped and will snooze!!! Until we get back.......
