June 2008: England

June was a crazy month in the Dixon household. Ryan and Shanna finished school/daycare on June 5th. It was a wonderful first year of daycare for Ryan. He really loves being with Ms. Heather and the other kids. Somedays it's even a fight to get him to leave. I guess mom and dad just aren't as much fun as three and four year olds!


On June 10th we braved an 8 hour flight with a one year old over to England. It went surprisingly well. We loved seeing everyone and catching up.





4 generations of Dixon men:

Grandad Dixon, Derek, Ben and Ryan.














Ryan's Great Grandparents:
Grandma and Grandad Dixon


















Ryan played catch with
Great Grandma Pearson.










Ryan met some of his second cousins






Ryan loved playing with Chris and Liz's 3 kids.
Is Jack in that pile somewhere?









Look at the twins go! Ryan loved playing with them. We were very lucky and found this exact see-saw at home at a garage sale!









Scott's daughter Saraphina (I'm sorry if I spelled it wrong) kept Ryan running. They played chase around the yard. What a ball of energy.

What a wonderful visit. We wish we could see everyone more often.
