Nicole's Bridal Shower.

Brody was quite the smiley dude at Nicole's Bridal Shower Saturday.

A trip to the Peoria Zoo.

Brody has started to wrinkle his nose when he smiles...it's too darn cute!

Conductor Brody

Brody recently took his first train ride in Monticello. He enjoyed his ride so much, he was asleep before we made it back to the depot. Grampy said that we only took him because he had an appropriate outfit to wear. Brody's mother has no comment.

See any similarities?

pictures from last weekend.

Our village dedicated their Veteran's Memorial this weekend. Great-Grandpa Yakey is a WWII Veteran, so we attended the dedication, which was quite the celebration. Then their was the parade. Great Aunt Vickie had a WR Yakey Grain shirt made to match the big people shirts! However, I was really worn out from farming with Grampy, church and the dedication, so I snoozed the whole parade on my mom's lap. She still managed to throw candy and wave.

Grampy and I...we had just got out of the big blue tractor. It was a rough ride.

While waiting for Daddy in the field, Grammy let me out of my carseat so I could watch the five tractors going to town to finish planting beans. It was really entertaining until I got hungry, tired, and hot...basically all at once.

My new favorite place to ride!

This is most of the crew that rode in the parade. The rest of the family watched the parade or helped push the car that Grampy was driving. Oops.
