We Did Not Sign Up For This

So here's the thing, the backyard isn't supposed to look like this on March 28. Spring, where did you go?


See those four teeth in there? Well, they've got four friends who need to get here ASAP. Otherwise I'm doing great. Felt a little sick the other day but I think I'm back.


Although you can't see much behind my head in this closeup, that's what the streets are supposed to look like in March. It's tough to ride the bike in the snow!

Whoa, Grandpa Danny Turned 60!

Hi there. Thanks for swinging by the new website.

We got a park close to our house that we can walk to. That means swinging and sliding pretty much whenever we want.

Have you ever wondered how workers move houses? Well just ask Grady. This is his latest architectural wonder.

And now...a bedtime story by Grady.

"This is a battery story. The battery was in his leg. He swallowed it and it went down into his leg. And then to get it out he needs a high-lick remover. Yep, that's what he needs." -- You mean heimlich maneuver? -- "That's what I said, he needs a high-lick remover...yep."

Last weekend we got a chance to go see all the cousins. Besides Grandpa turning 60 years old (whoa), the highlight was probably jumping on this trampoline with Luke.

We got some tricks huh?

Mom says I look like a moose here. But I don't think I look like a moose at all. I mean, mooses have antlers or something.

Grady, you rack 'em...

...and I'll break.

I'll eat pretty much anything you put within arms reach. Note to potential babysitters...I'll eat anything you put within arms reach.

By the way, I'm looking for my banana. Holla at me if you find it.

Dad and me killed some time in the yard taking my senior pictures. I mean, just some pictures.

Lexi and me chillin on the couch. We're looking forward to her visit this summer.

I love my mommy and she loves me.

Alright then, smell ya later.

A New Beginning

Long time followers of Grady World and Club Colin...we present to you a new beginning. Let's face it, Daddy was doing a horrible job with the updates. Maybe with this new setup he'll get motivated. It can't hurt right? Anyway, the old blogs are officially over. Everything will be here instead. And lucky for you all the old pictures and what not are all here now! Yippee!!! Alright, let's get into it...

First up is Colin's big photo shoot last week. You know he's getting bigger all the time so we figured we better get some of those expensive kinds of pictures taken. Here's most of them...yes we know a lot of them look the same.

What else have we been doing since January? Not much really. We've watched a little TV.

And we built some shelves in the basement.

Let's see that in motion...

Little C started finding his way all over the house...

He was pretty proud of himself when he figured out he could get up a few stairs.

You know, no one ever said life would be easy...never give up!

Boys night is the real deal. We like hats and blankets. And we usually have some popcorn too.

One night we took Boys Night to a whole new level when Colton and Carter came over while their Mommy and Daddy had a night out. It took some work for us to even get one this good.

Look at that little monkey. No really, there's a monkey.

The reason my face looks like this is because I'm going so fast. Super fast.

Here's Big G acting like an old man in his rocking chair.

Hanging with the neighborhood fellas. They're good dudes.

Here we are in a basket, just being cool.

When I'm getting around, I've got to stay hydrated.

Trust me when I tell you this, I will be designing and building some big buildings some day.

Thank goodness we don't live in some horrible cold place like Minnesota where it snows all the time, but we did take advantage of the white stuff when we had it.

After all that we're feeling dirty. A buddy bath it is.
