Today is my dad's birthday. He's turning 58, which Ty says is really old. Since today is a Monday, we all decided yesterday would be the better day to celebrate. I mean, who wants to celebrate on a Monday after work, right?
Anyway, Sunday was a beautiful day...perfect for grilling steaks. Dad is the official GRILLMASTER when it comes to cooking steaks, so we pretty much leave him alone to do his job. Luckily, Grandma and Grandpa have lots of fun stuff to do at their house while we're waiting on dinner. I always offer to help, of course, then we all head outside to relax.
Here are some of the fun shots I got! Happy Birthday Grandpa (from Ty and Wes)!
Grandma is always finding cool sand toys for Ty to play with and this one was no exception. Ty was talking about his new digger the entire drive home.
Yes, that is my darling husband being a dork on the swings (please ignore the horrible lighting - I didn't have much choice in the matter).
and this next one is my BEST SHOT for today...I LOVE it!
I know this one's a bit blurry and the coloring is all wacky, but I liked it anyway...
and here's the proof I was there...
hi.
and last...
Awesome shots. Love the one's with grandpa and the one of your hand, I need to do that, as proof. If my girls lives were based solely around photos, I would not exist....LOL

I like the one where the little guy is rubbing his belly like he's just eaten one too many steaks.
