Family portrait time. All the cousins and four generations

Hangin' with the cousins in South Dakota

We took off Thursday night to head to my sister Tammy's house and got here Friday morning. It has been busy busy since we got here, Uncle Jim even let Akins drive a big tractor! Not a dull moment and shortly Eman, Abegail, Sue and Scott should be here to join us for dinner and let the kids all play. Tomorrow we will be spending the day together.

Akins Junior Sings

Exactly what he is singing I have no idea, but he is singing.

Part boy part fish

The boy has no fear! Sorry the quality is not so good it is from my cell phone! Also, make sure you scroll down to the Junior and the Fly video clip. I had to buy some software for adding video and so it shows posted before the Zoo photos because I couldn't get it to load when I was originally trying to. Pretty funny stuff this guy provides!

A day at the zoo!

Yesterday we had a BIG day! We went to the zoo and saw a whole lot of animals, rode the carousel TWICE and rode the train. Then came home and went swimming again! Life is good and then we crash.

Junior and the Fly

We played a lot today! Had our very first pancakes with syrup! Yummy. then came home and swam until nap time (not the highlight by the way), then later played with the neighbor kids. Akins Junior saw his very first grasshopper and had a little Lady Bug for a friend for a while. Unitl...well you know she needed to go to sleep. For dinner it seemed like a really good idea to eat outside at one of the patio tables. Make sure you watch both segments of the video outside and well then inside. This will give you insight into this little man's personality. What do you think? Is he a happy boy?
