We joined the Brown's and the Vandesteeg's for a day of apple picking! Eckerts was SO much fun! Mike and Mikey on the really big tractor! Leave it to my boy to find corn! Ryan and Mikey Ryan-Mike-Mikey Ryan and Mikey feeding the goats. Mikey had his first pony ride! Walking through the bridge. Mommy and Ryan on the train ride. Daddy showing Mikey how to play mini golf. Mikey was so excited to pick his first apple from the tree. Ryan and Mikey holding the bag of apples. Found a good one! Mike-Ryan-Mikey Ryan eating an apple in the orchard. Mikey then wanted red apples...he might have pulled a little too hard. Once we left the farm, we then met Leanne and Nicole's families for lunch at 17 th Street BBQ and Grill. The food was good, but the company was even better!

Lisa Fuller, you are amazing! I love these pictures, and can't wait to see them in print! Thank you VERY much for all of your hard work! Mikey Ryan Ryan and Mikey

Ryan wasn't quite sure what was going on, so he was a little nervous. "Hey Dylan, whats going on?" "The chair is very high off the ground...wonder why I am here?" "This looks fun...I get a cape." Ryan just did not want to sit still, so grandma had to help while Carrie cut the back. (Mommy was sad to see his little curls go!) Ryan looked great...amazing what a haircut can do! Mikey also sat in the chair, and got a sharp new haircut, as well!

Our family has always supported the "Fill The Boot," as all of the local fire deprtments hit the streets to supprt Jerry's Kids. Mikey was so excited to see the St.Charles Fire Department's truck up close! Mikey Mikey and Ryan couldn't wait to put their donation into the boot!

I thought we would try craft time, at Michael's Craft Store, as it was free! (After the last FAIL, I wasnt sure how Mikey would do...) The activity was advertised as a hand print activity with modeling clay. Unfortunately , they only had "sample" size bags to make the craft, so it ended up being a thumbprint craft. Mikey went with the flow, end up making his in the shape of fishes. Mikey and his completed project.

Daddy surprised the boys, by picking them up early from the baby sitter, and took these pictures with his camera phone! -Ryan- Yes, he is licking the seat... so proud! Mikey and his "Cool" sun glasses!

Ryan loves his Disney Pixar Cars, and drags them every where. Mikey and Ryan were using the upper balcony as a road. Ryan Mikey He has a death grip on them when he carries them around the house. He tucks them under his chin, when he thinks big brother, Mikey, is going to come over and try to play with them. "Dude...I am not going to steal your cars."
