Canadians came to town (a while ago...) & a ton of other pictures

     So I had full intentions of posting pictures from Grandma and Grandpa Schuurman's visit BEFORE the pictures of Titus' birthday, but alas, I did not.  So here are pictures from their visit, along with a few new ones just to fill your picture quota until the next time I make time to blog. :)

Mark's parents brought lots of goodies from their basement.  Inside was this gem. 

Maybe one day he'll fit in it.

Almost immediately upon arrival, the boys were outside playing baseball. 

Marcus loved having Grandpa there because he didn't have to chase the missed balls anymore.

Titus' birthday present from his cousins was a bit hit with both boys.

All kinds of fun happens at the mall with Grandma Schuurman

Titus was absolutely tuckered out.

Grandma and Grandpa came with us to watch Daddy play in a church softball game.  Marcus also enjoyed time with his buddy, Chase.

Marcus insisted HIS Daddy open his Father's Day gift, too.

Yes, Aunt Ran, we put the wagon to good use. :)

Cute, but tired boys.

On really hot days, the boys like to play in cold water bowls on the porch. 

Waiting for Dr. Love at his one-year appointment.

A few weeks ago, Mark and I had the privilege of attending a broadcast taping of Focus on the Family.  The highlight for us was meeting and speaking with their president, Jim Daly. 

Marcus, Titus, and Adelyn outside the Children's Museum, Hand's On.

Marcus made his own lego car and raced it down the track.

This was the huge bubble maker.

The rice table is always a hit.

Titus "performing" on stage.

Marcus goin' fishin - and catching one!

Blowing a big bubble!

Ending our time with a date to Chick-Fil-A

This car is still a source of great fun for both our boys.

Sweet JoJo and Marcus, riding on top of the hill.

Silly Titus has learned how to stick out his tongue - and thinks it's pretty funny.

Love that sweet face.

A legend lefty in the making

Sharing his popsicle with little brother.

Sleepy, smiley Titus just woke up from a nap.

Now that he's one and meets the weight requirement, we turned Titus' car seat around.  Let's just say he's mighty happy about it.

Helping Daddy take the bread in before the storm hits.

More front porch playing in water bowls. 

All dressed up and cheesing before church.

Surprised at how far he hit it!  (just kidding)

Another popsicle and more sharing with little brother.

I love it when I walk into their room in the morning and see this. :)

Titus is pulling for Holland in the World Cup.

Using a turtle sand box for a pool.  That's how we roll.

Cold water feels GOOD on a hot day!

Cheeeese!

Working on his Canada Day craft.

All done!

Daddy feeding Titus his last bottle ever (sniff, sniff) while reading to Marcus, first thing in the morning.
