The 4th of July

We had such a fun 4th of July weekend. Mitch was off of work on Friday so we went back to Cape Girardeau on Thursday night and had a wonderful weekend! We went swimming, bbqed with the family, watched fireworks, went to St. Louis to visit my mom's family....and then came home to Jackson on Tuesday afternoon. It was a busy few days but we had a ball. Here are some pictures of Chapman enjoying the vacation!



Uncle Billy is so fun to play with!! Here is Chapman getting launched in the air. The minute he hit the water he would say, "Tree, Tree." For "Three, Three." We were counting, "One, Two, Three" before Billy would throw him up and he basically wanted to skip one & two!


When you put Chapman on his back in the water he sticks up one of his legs. Maybe for balance? I don't know why but we were laughing so hard because he looks like a Synchronized Swimmer in these pictures! Maybe a future calling.........????? (don't tell Mitch I said that!)



Chapman's Great Uncle Jeff is teaching him the proper techniques for throwing the frisbee.


Such a little Cutie Pie!!!!




On Sunday we went to St. Louis to visit my grandparents, aunts, uncles & cousins. Here is a group shot of some of them with Chapman.

My Grandma & Grandpa bought Chapman a vintage Radio Flyer car from a Flea Market. My grandpa buffed it really well and made it nice and new for Chapman. He had a blast riding around on it!





We had such a fun time visiting all of our family!!! We love you and miss you!
