From Bad to WORST!

Bad: Waking up at 4 AM to Francine puking on the floor
Worse: Noticing that she puked on the bed
Worst: Realizing that Spencer has been sleeping in it...

Leslie's 175th!

Oliver is featured in the Leslie Guardian!

What a busy weekend! We all spent the weekend in Leslie for the many festivities. A football game on Friday night, a parade and festival all day Saturday, and then a reunion Saturday night.GOOO BLACKHAWKS!!

Oliver was in the parade and won the best wagon in his age group :)

Then we all changed into some period clothing for the afternoon and played with the Golab crew.

Oliver made sure that he left time to go on an elephant ride with Grandpa Charlie!

The night ended with Aunt Christa watching all 5 kiddos and us adults going to the all-classes reunion. All in all, it was an eventful weekend!

Oliver's 3 year and Spencer's 6 month pics :)

Elizabeth did it again :)

Conversations with Odie

Me: "Odie, it's time to go home."
Odie: "NOOOO....I want to ride my cooter!"

Someday he will think that's funny...

The Toledo Zoo

Oliver and I had a great time at the Toledo Zoo with Aunt Julie and her friends Megan and Jacquelyn!

The temperature was cool, but it was just perfect for a day with the animals :)

Go Green!

Oliver's first MSU Football game of the season! With tomorrow being the 10 year anniversary of 9/11, it brought back many memories of my time in the MSU Marching Band. Every day that week we met, played the Star Spangled Banner, and went home. I hope some day I can adequately express to my children what a tragedy like that does to you and how important it is to never forget the importance of every human life.

Besides the somber occasion, the game itself was fun and we enjoyed cheering with Sparty, eating popcorn and cotton candy :)

First Day of Preschool!

Oliver's first day of official preschool!

and Spencer too :)

Labor Day

Labor Day was nice and low-key. We stayed in Leslie and went to the night game at MSU. We also had a chance to go over to the Feazel side and have a get-together on Sunday. Oliver always loves all his time with the Golab clan :)
