You know you got a cold when................

...you go to the drawer and pick out the thermometer to take your own temperature...

...and you go to the shelf and bring back a box of kleenex' and start wiping your own nose...
Braxton has been coming down with an awful cold the past days. Started with the runny nose, then led to the cough, raspy voice, poor appetite, and of course sleepless nights for all in the Busselman house......but the bright side...he (knock on wood) hasn't had a fever yet! He's trying so hard to be a tuff guy:)

Hope everyone is having a great week:)

10 YEARS...WHERE DID YOU PLAN TO BE?!??!
We celebrated Brad's 10 year class reunion last weekend! What a blast!! We headed down to Kansas City for a night out on the town, followed by Oceans/Worlds of Fun the next day!
8 were able to attend...out of 14 I think?? If I am correct, 10 are married, 9 have children, and 3 are expecting! I would say life these past 10 years after high school have been pretty great for all! We wish everyone could've made it, but summers are so busy for everyone!
It was super hard leaving Little man behind, but it was a nice weekend away spent with great friends!! Here are a few pictures...

Vickie*(James)*Nicole(Dale)*Jessica(Scott)*Amanda(Brad)*Jaime(Eric)*(not pictured Sara(Les

Seems weird to have a picture of us 2...and not us"3"

Braxton and his buddy Logan

He now loves to blow bubbles...even got to taste them...oops!

Brad really likes when I offer 'horseback' rides for Braxton!!!

Fishing at the Lindsay Puddle...this is the type of picture you get when you are taking it yourself...Sorry Uncle Lyle you didn't make the photo!(that's what you get for making me take my own fish off the hook!!!)

It was so funny...Brad pulled up his chair, so Braxton pulled up the tackle box and made himself a chair

Looks like a little fisherman:)

CAMPING again!!! We had a blast with the Preister clan camping this past weekend! We go every year to Timberlake by Central City. It is so nice and peaceful!!! They have the blob, a rock climbing wall, a zip cord, paddle boats, canoes, ice cream parlor, and much more! Braxton enjoys the freedom he has up there! He runs every which way and no one stops him! He has been getting a little into EVERYTHING!!! Sunday, for example, I watched him pull out the kitchen table chair, climb onto it, climb onto the table, and attempt to 'jump' off! Then, Monday morning I watched him open the toilet lid, and yes,...insert his shoe into the toilet:( Ah, the crazy things boys do:) (let me explain that I was standing there and it happened so fast I couldn't stop him!!!) So, life around the Busselman house been very funny lately....just a few pictures for you:)

He loves to ride in his car seat...THANKFULLY!

Okay...pardon the outfit...he IS wearing cowboy boots with shorts...I KNOW!

He was making his 'tractor' sounds...kind of looks like he is yelling at me!!

He helped me can corn...last week I was watering flowers while he sat in the garage and shucked an ear of corn and attempted to eat it!!! RAW!!(mother of the year again!)
This was last year in his pool.................

....and getting it ready for this year!!! (I think he weighs the same as last year...but maybe grew a little more hair:)
