Let the Good Times Roll....

Jacob, Nana, and I hit the bowling alley at EIU. We had a great time and we all took a turn at winning a game. 

Of course, Mouse Trap, Monopoly, & the motorcycle ride at BW3, were also in order. 

Hot Wheels Galore

Jacob is the proud owner of a new Hot Wheels track. He's trying each of his cars and making winning and losing piles. You lose if you don't make it around the large loop at least one time. 

The winners!

Getting Some Fresh Air

We took advantage of the nice weather today. Ice cream is always a must on a nice day. We then headed to the park to ride his bike, throw a boomerang, play ping pong, and a little disc golf. As usual, he met some buddies on the playground. After two hours, I had to drag him home.

Failed attempt....

but fun was still had by all.  Bumpa was given a tour of the Dallara Factory (where they make IRL cars) for his birthday. We tried going on Saturday only to find out they were closed for a wedding. We ended up at the IMS Museum instead. Everyone had a nice time and Jacob is starting to have a taste for racing. We're not sure yet if it's for cars or motorcycles. 

Birthdays!

Another great weekend in Mattoon celebrating birthdays. 

King and Queen of the hill.

Ryan trying....so.....hard

Ryan missed the photo. He was running around. 

Super Bowl

Jacob and I tried to get creative with our football food....this is the best we can do. 

Paint Your Own Pottery

Nana and Bumpa need a new spoon rest. Jacob decided Wrigs needs a treat canister. I'm sure Wrigley will be ecstatic. 

We then went out for Cajun. Just a little piece of chocolate cake to finish off the meal....
