Okay so this is a little prequil to these cute pictures I took today. For those of you who dont know this is Cory, his sweet wifee Candice, and his look alike son Hayes. (they live about five houses down the street from us) Cory is Jared's cousin. He has two brothers, Ian and Micah, who Jared has always been very close with. He thinks of them more as brothers than cousins. If you ever ask Jared about these three he will go on for days with stories of when they were kids. Well Cory was battling cancer for the second time and lost his fight recently. He passed away on April 27 and we were devastated. In fact we still are. I cant go to Candice's blog without crying (but I do anyway) Anyway his little Hayes is only 7 weeks younger than my little Grant. Hayes wasnt around a ton while his daddy was sick, but now that he is back home with his mommy I am hoping that they can be good buddies like their dad's were and make some good memories together.

So we walked up to Hayes' house today to see if he could come down and play. The boys were playing in the backyard with rackets and birdies.

Grant was mad because he wanted to play with the yellow birdie not the pink one. The look on Hayes' face says, "Get over it!" LOL

Hayes decided to use his racket as a golf club and Grant followed suit. Look at that form. He must have gotten that from his dad. (Cory LOVED to golf)

They look like a couple of old men out on the golf course.

It looks like they are fighting but they are really laughing. It was so cute to see them having fun together!

Hopefully they can laugh together like this more often!
