Homage to the Home Land

Last weekend we cruised to the Homeland for a very eventful weekend.

We were having an open house for my Grandma's 90th birthday.

We met my brother's girlfriend.

We got our yellow fever shots.

And here's the best part (at least according to Isaac).

We got to see the fire trucks!

Aunt Amber (who works for the local EMS) got us in to see the trucks up close. 

And let us wear her helmet.

This is The Girlfriend.  Isaac calls her Crocodile.  

Because everyone needs a good nickname.

Just ask Master Chief, Colonel, and Doc.  :)

And then we actually got around to setting up for Granny's party.

Happy Birthday Granny!

So here's the fam, minus Nathaniel's branch.  

(We missed you guys!)

And of course my babies not quite yet home from the Congo. 

(Soon, Lovies!  I'm coming soon!)
