(Run Jive)Turkey Run

We went to Turkey Run(http://www.turkeyrunstatepark.com/) today. It's south from Lafayette about 50 miles. we wanted to go, I had a long weekend and it was beautiful outside. Aedan really didn't want to go but once we got there and started walking he was into it.



We packed a picnic lunch and then walked the some trails. This picture is Aedan bumping Ella.


Up on Sugar Creek.




Sitting at Sunset point.





Here's Ella with her babushka on. So is almost as tall as my granny was. She didn't keep it on long but she had to carry it the whole way around. Ella was a trooper she was hiking the whole time.

It looks dark but we were down by the creek next to some cliffs it really pretty cool. We definitely will be back.

Here is me trying to be artsy like my brother.

Why Daddy doesn't Dress Ella

I really should have no decisions in the outfits that my child wears. Luckily Ella has no clue what kind of torture i am putting here through. At least she is routing for the Indians.






Here's Aedan after a long day of school. Notice Ella's hand ready to awaken the sleeping monster.
Go Tribe.

hi-FIVE(or Aedan is 5)

Here's what a five year old McGurr looks like. Aedan had his fifth birthday on June 30th. He had a great party on the 27th in the backyard on his Waterslide(see below). It was lot's of fun, I have to go on a diet so i can slide down it. On the 28th, he went to his buddy Ayden's birthday at tropicanoe cove(the pool) http://www.lafayette.in.gov/aquatics/division.php?fDD=28-121
. The have a sand are that Ella and Aedan both love.
Here is Courtney and Finn.



Just some hot dudes brushing sand off each others butts. Nothing wrong with that.



Ella screaming "this hole ain't goin' dig itself." She hasn't taken any English classes so don't blame her.



Aedan's party was tons of fun. The Kids loved the slide. It turned out to be a wonderful day. Aedan got a lot of cool stuff like transformers, Lego's,Indiana Jones, some cool clothes and some water toys. He wants to thank everyone who came and those who sent their wishes even if they couldn't make it.

Ella watching her brother at his speech camp at Purdue. They had a parade for the fourth of July.
