Memorial Day Weekend

We had a fun weekend in Va Beach. Braden got to ride in the neighborhood Memorial Day bike parade and swim in the pool!

(and yes he is still wearing the hat... but he did let Collin try it on now that his dad Uncle Eric is a converted Yankee fan)

Busch Gardens

We had a great time at Busch Gardens today and yes he is still wearing the hat.

Braden worked up the courage to ride on the little kid water ride! Before the ride even finished he asked for "more! more!" while signing please.

Braden put the moves on Addy in Dragon Land and snuck a little smooch in there...

"Yeeeesss!"

The Hat obsesssion continues...

It all started when Laurie decided that Braden had to wear a hat in order to go outside so that he would not burn his scalp. Well, now Braden is always ready to go outside...day or night. He wears this Yankee hat ALL the time... if we don't let him wear it to sleep as soon as he wakes up he asks for it. Garrison says he looks like the guy from the movie Rocky.

This is the smile Braden makes when we ask to smile for the camera...

Yesterday we had to wash the hat so we tried to replace the favortie hat with the one we bought him on our trip. He would wear it, but still prefers his Yankee hat.

Braden loves organizing the tupperware cabinet. Every tupperware must have its proper lid. Where did he get this obessive organization tendancy? definitely the Dean side....

Happy Mother's Day

Needless to say we were very excited to see Braden when we got hom elate last night. Then we all got up bright and early today to go to Richmond to watch Collin be dedicated. And yes Braden loves wearing this hat and that is why there are so many pictures of him wearing it!

We're Back!

We had a great time on on trip to Peter Island(in the British Virgin Islands) for Bryce's work last week, Braden enjoyed his week with Momba and GPa in VA beach.

View from our room's little patio. This is the beach where we both windsurfed... pretty fun.

We also enjoyed spending time with the Smiths - Jim played for the Yankees back in the day, so of course I love to hear all the stories!

W&M Spring Game

A couple Saturdays ago we enjoyed watching the Spring Game with the Cook family!

Another Wedding Weekend

Congratulations to Willetts (who played football with Bryce and stayed with us for several months when he began coaching at W&M) who married Brooke this weekend. Bryce did his first ever public poem recitation at the wedding and did a great job!

G-Pa came to Williamsburg to watch and play with Braden!
