I-Di-Ho

This past weekend we went to Idaho for Trav's 10 year high school reunion. Mine was actually the exact same weekend (just in different states) but we decided to go to his this year mostly because his class only has like 40 people and mine has around 700 and we figured it would be a lot more fun in a smaller setting. Of course, we forgot to take any pictures at the reunion itself, but we did manage to get quite a few at Grandpa's and Uncle Jon's house, where we stayed. Jon and his fiance Shelia were so nice to put us up for a few days and we ate some awesome food and had the best time playing around the farm.

For those of you that didn't know, Trav's dad and brother are beekeepers and also have quite the assortment of animals and tractors at their house.  Petey was in heaven. Grandpa took him and his cousin Stewart for multiple rides on the forklift.

He helped feed the elk and saw the two new baby calves.

He drove the forklift (again) with Daddy.
Petey's help was needed quite often this weekend. I don't know how Jon gets anything done without him.

 Check out this look of extreme concentration on Petey's face here.

And played with his cousin Stewart (or 'Sue-ert' as Petey says). These two are only about 6 months apart and look SO much alike. I've never really seen Petey play with another kid before (he usually just does the parallel play thing) but he and Stewart would jump on the bed together, dig dirt, tickle each other, play trains, and just in general follow each other around everywhere. It was hilarious.
Petey giving Stewart a hug - or choking him. It's a toss-up. 

These two are so darn cute. Although if this past weekend is any indication, we should just be prepared for the insane amount of mischief they'll get into together in about 4 or 5 years.

Those are the most adorable boys! Oh, yeah I might be a little prejudiced! Hope the reunion was a blast and you were able to catch up on where and how everyone is.
