The Cirone's

One of the stops while we were gone was to Andy's aunt and uncle's home in Farmington, IL. It was about 30 minutes outside of Peoria. They have a very nice place and were more than willing to let us come and hang out for a couple of days. They had a lot of things for the boys to do and of course spoiled us rotten while we were there. We don't get to see them as often as we would like but take the opportunities we are given to visit.
The boys got to cook over an open fire, ride in jeeps, play pool, go fishing, and pretty much anything else they could dream up. It was a great couple of day and I have lots of pictures to prove it!

Andy, Brazos and Brayson getting ready to cook their hot dogs, and them smores!

Uncle Bill getting ready to take us for a ride. We went out twice a day on this to see if we could find deer or anything else running around.

You know Braxton and all his many faces

Brazos watching the game to see if he can figure it out.

The love of my life. I could not have asked for anything better!

I like his goofy side too! Not to many people to get see this side of him

Paula, Bill, and Chris getting supper ready, we were fed very well!

Chris ready to ride with the boys. BRaxton took to Chris and would not leave. It was really fun to watch, Chris was a trooper and answered all his questions and let him just hang out.

Andy and the pool table again.

Brazos downstairs

Bill has three jeeps and the boys thought that was GREAT, so he got all of them out for us and we went for a drive. It was fun to watch the boys with all the big toys. Bill was very kind to share - everything. Andy, Brazos and BRayson in the white jeep

Chris and of course Braxton in the Army jeep

And time for another adventure

Fish, fish and more fish!

Braxton loved Chris! He had some many questions for him, we told him before we went out that he had a 10 question limit for the day. When he went over 10 question we threw him in the water. He was not very happy about it, but once he was in the water he decided it might be ok. Thanks for being a trooper Braxton and thanks to Chris for putting up with all of us!
