Matchbox location uncovered...



We went to the Jenison Parade today. The kids were so excited to go.

Although the title may not make sense on this post, Tyler can clear this up in a hurry.
We were sitting among a group of older adults who nearly fell out of their collapsable, chairs laughing at Tyler's comments.
As a classic car rolled by Tyler yelled as loud as he could. "Mom, that looks just like my car that has been stuck under the fridegerator since a long time ago." "Do you remember that car?"
One of the ladies started offering Tyler tips to get it out. If you take a yard stick she told him you can just swosh stuff out from under there. He just grinned and said " Oh, I just use my Mom's spatula mostly, but it won't quite reach that one. I tried the fly slapper and that won't reach it either. It's pretty far under there." Nice to know..... because I flipped the pancakes with that spatula this morning.... Didn't know about it's apparent sebaticle under my appliances.

Tulip time







We went out to Holland to enjoy some tulips. We got to spend some time with Traci and the girlies:) The kids had not seen the dutch dance for years so we were due for some dutch cultural enrichment. With their blond hair and blue eyes they represented their heritage well.
