In loving memory

My Grammy, Mikey's great-Gramma, passed away this weekend.

I'm so glad that she got to meet my sweet baby boy, and my sisters sweet babies too.

Grammy was 79, had 10 children, 32 grandchildren, 29 great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great grandchildren.

Love you Grammy.

Mikey got a bubble machine at Adam and Lisa's baby shower this past weekend. He loved playing with the bubbles!!!

The Batavia Boogie!!

Hi there!!! We had a great week on vacation out in Batavia. Every year the drop zone brings in large aircraft to jump from that we can't fly out of our small airport due to the short grass strip, so we go out to Batavia and have what skydivers call a boogie! It's just a way to get a bunch of jumpers together and have tons of fun jumping. Mikey was with us the whole time and we "employed" babysitters when we went to make a jump. He was absolutely wonderful the entire week! This picture is all the tents and trailers that we set up to run the show!

Silly Mommy

Just goofing around...don't worry, the plane is on the ground!

The Plane!

My silly kid couldn't get enough of all the planes this week. Here, daddy is holding him inside the Twin Otter. We had this plane Wednesday and Thursday while we were waiting for the CASA to arrive.

"Aunt" sKY::

My lovely friend sKY:: and her very sweet counterpart Slade got to meet Mikey this week for the first time. They've been living in Calgary and this was their first trip back to Buffalo. Love you guys and can't wait to see you again!!!

"Uncle" Slade

Well, Slade pretty much stole Mikey from me the second he saw him! A really, who can blame him?? lol

One of my very best friends, Jenn Mook, came out to the boogie and made her first skydive!!! She had a great time ( so did I) and I hope she'll come back for more fun in the sky!!

Joey

Everyone at the DZ just loves Mikey...Joey calls him the Dropzone sweetheart. :)

Houseboy

Mikey and "houseboy" (long story) Jason, playing together the first night of the boogie. He did manage to get the hat and deposit a good amount of drool on the brim. lol

Jason was one of our pilots, and has moved on to another job flying a bigger plane at another drop zone...He will be GREATLY missed at our little DZ. WE love you Houseboy!!!

The CASA

This is the plane we jumped from this week. It's originally from Mozambique, hence the jungle paint job!

Our little family next to the big plane. Mikey LOVED all the aircraft activity at the airport. Every time a plane took off or landed he was staring at it!

"Captain" Maly's

We had to show Mikey the CASA and he really liked being in the cockpit wearing the headset!
