Whirlwind Weekend

It was another busy weekend for the Janisch family this weekend. Ryan worked and worked and worked some more, but he did manage to get away for a couple hours on Friday night and joined us for Round 2 at the fair.

Layla loved this little tractor. And now she gets to ride it whenever she is at Grandma and Grandpa Sloan's house because my dad saw just how much Shea and Layla enjoyed it :-) Layla likes to turn the wheel and honk the pretend horn. Doesn't she look just like Ryan in the picture on the right? I mainly only see the resemblance between daddy and daughter in pictures and this one is very strong!

Layla and Shea also enjoyed the fish game. Well...they enjoyed throwing the fish and Layla almost knocked another little girl over trying to get to a moving fish, but they sure had a good time! Look at Shea's face in the picture on the right.

I know this is fuzzy...but perfectly Layla right now. She is ALWAYS clapping and nodding her head these days.

Later on we met up with Ryan's family at the fair and Layla loved this big tractor too. She sat with Grandpa Janisch on it for almost a half an hour. Our niece Kelsey also joined in on the fun. Can you even believe Kelsey is going to start middle school this week? I cannot believe that she is already in 6th grade.

And next are pictures from my cousin Kyle's college graduation party on Saturday. Congrats Kyle! He is looking for a job as a police officer and he had some very interesting stories about his internship with the police department this summer.

Anyway, we had a very fun time and Layla enjoyed keeping an eye on the dogs, looking out the sunroom windows and watching all of the little kids running around. Here is Ms. Layla with her Super Aunt Ann playing bubbles. My cousin Trevor is in the pictures helping with the bubbles. You just have to double click on the left picture to enlarge it. I love the look on Layla's face and I really like to think that Bella (the dog in the picture) took a liking to Layla. See her looking up at Layla?

Sunday was a work day at Ryan's school for my family. We (mostly my mom to be honest) helped Ryan get all of the keys organized for the school (this is a HUGE job for a brand new building) and I happily labeled all of the teacher mailboxes. I just love a label maker.

Layla enjoyed toddling around the building and loved the slides on the playground. Ryan and I are just loving Layla walking right now. She is getting into more, but I think she crawled for so long that we can really appreciate the independence and she is so darn cute staggering around.

Have a good week everyone!
