The Brittons

Paddle boat on the pond Playing in the water at the ski lake Riding the wave runner Nick, Jeremy, and Brian Nick skiing Gracie playing in the sand This past weekend we celebrated Nick's birthday. I surprised him by taking him and his brothers skiing at the lake just north of Huxley. I think they had a lot of fun and everyone was tired afterward. Gracie made it all day without a nap and then crashed in the middle of dinner around 6:45pm and slept for well over 12 hours. It was great. She was a champ and loved playing in the water and the sand. She even got to ride the jet ski. Then the following day we went to Nick's mom's to spend some time down there.

We attended Jeremy and Mary's graduations and open house down at Nick's mom's. That was so much fun and Gracie had a great time seeing everyone. While down there that weekend, she learned to drive the jeep all by herself. She figured out the gas pedal, but doesn't quite understand steering yet. She and Ryleigh were in the tub together after getting filthy in the sand box at Gramma's and that was pretty entertaining. Over Memorial Day weekend, we went to Missouri to see my parents and Chad and Annie. We got to spend some time on the boat and in the pool.
