Jack enjoyed the cupcake.
I snapped this great shot of the cousins in a little toy house.
We actually saw Jack's birth mom and his great grandma at the picnic. It was nice to see them. I would have taken some pictures of the three of them if Jack hadn't been such a clingon with me. We learned that great grandpa is getting better all the time. We hope to see him soon.We visited my grandparents which means we went to the cemetary. There was a guy playing a banjo across the street which was neat. Mike said the man must have been serenading souls to heaven.
Trees line the road leading to the cemetary and it brings to mind a long, southern road leading to a mansion. It is a beautiful sight considering it's a cemetary.
Some good old-fashioned tree scratching! Not sure what those boys were thinking.
Of course, no parish picnic would be complete without porta potties and a tent compliments of a local funeral home.
We saw my brother who only makes it home several times a year. He and my mom made cheesecake! We all enjoyed the fruits of their labor.
My niece is in kindergarten and has a habit of raising her hand when she wants to say something now. It's pretty cute.

We went to the Maramec Spring Park today. It was beautiful although my pictures won't do the place justice. Also, the sun didn't pop up until we were almost ready to go home which was probably a good thing since it warmed up in the afternoon.
The cousins enjoyed feeding the fish - lots of trout!
We stopped at Burger King on the way home. We ate like kings.
And we ended the evening with hot dogs on the grill and roasted marshmallows. Yum! We also enjoyed a ride on "Poppo's" tractor.
