Labor Day Weekend

We traveled to Wichita for the Labor Day holiday. It was a really fun trip and the highlight was meeting my cousin Molly's daughter Lyndy who was born on Nov. 9 of last year. She is so sweet! It was nice to be able to spend time with both my extended family and immediate family. Thanks everyone for making the trip.

This is true love between Aunt Annie and Molly because the sight/smell of bananas makes Annie gag and she let Molly sit on her lap to eat one.

Our attempt at a family picture...notice how funny she thinks she is?


Molly and her personal shopper.



Reading books with cousin Oliver



The newest member of the family, Gibbs. Mom and Dad adopted him a week before we all got there. Poor thing hardly knew what hit him.



Happy grandparents.



Happy Grandbabies.



Kissing cousins.



The not-so-newly weds. They just celebrated their one year anniversary and shared the top of their wedding cake with all of us over the weekend.



Molly loved this shopping cart and clearly wasn't in the mood to be disturbed for a picture.



It takes great restraint everytime we leave Wichita not to steal this guy and bring him back to Iowa with us.



Great Grandma Duck and 3 of her 4 great grandbabies. It was nearly impossible to get them all in a picture.



Lyndy and Molly making beautiful music.



Beautiful baby Lyndy.



Lyndy and Molly playing/watching Yo Gabba Gabba. This was after a long day in the pool, hence the red eyes and spacey stares.


I kept trying to get the perfect picture of all 3 of them, but there was always something more interesting to look at.



This is Finlay, Annie and David's Great Dane puppy. He is only 5 months old and HALF of the weight he will get to. He is such a sweet dog and Molly wasn't intimidated at all, she loves him.



Oliver in the pool at Aunt Susie's house.




What a life: soaking up the sun, being pushed around the pool by Gammy and sharing Goldfish with your favorite cousin.


Silly Lyndy. She has the best hair!
