Two Weekends Ago

I try to keep up to date with pictures, but last week was crazy ...so this post didn't get done....but now I've got a little time since the snow canceled Bible Study this morning!

Here is what we were up to 2 weekends ago:

We visited Mimi and Poppop!  My cousin Alissa was having her Baby Shower nearby, so it was a good excuse to go for the weekend.  Although we got to see them at Matt's wedding, Chloe and April haven't seen their great-grandparents since Christmas!

What was the first thing we did? Eat ice-cream :)




The shower was on Saturday & my sister Laura drove up to be there too.  We had fun getting lost in a town that is three blocks long, but made it and had a great time!



Why stop the fun when we got home?  On Sunday night we had a pizza party with my parents & sister and brother-in-law.  They had been at a wedding in Ohio and were driving through to get home. 

It was fun to see them....The girls put on their "dancer girl" outfits....to tickle Uncle Tom:

and try on Aunt Michelle's shoes: 

They did dance for us too -- and I managed to get a photo of these three, where Chloe and Tom were looking at the camera....

and then April and Tom were looking at the camera. 

Our girls were pretty tired & excited....so it was a visit filled with lots of laughter....but also a little crazy thrown in :) Not really sure what Chloe was trying to do to me here ;) 

This past weekend was just the opposite - hardly anything going on and really relaxing :)

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...
