Trip with the Girls

Last week, I took the girls on a trip....to see Connor! :) Who wouldn't want to spend 5 hours in the car/rest stops with a 2 1/2 year old and baby to see this sweet face? :)


Everyone was excited to get out of the car and start playing when we got there. Connor was such a nice boy to Chloe and April. He shared all his great toys, let us come to his swim-night and music class, and had his Mom serve us great food :)


See this 'guy' next to April? She loved him! "Steel-y" is the name of her new friend and she spent some time 'talking' with him each day....she might have thought he was a dog....

We also spent a lot of time looking out the windows (love those low windows at Bill and Laura's!):




Over three days, these three had a great time together :) The weather was so nice that we got to play outside and take a few walks. Chloe got to go get ice-cream with Aunt Laura too!


Even Schnookums gets the royal treatment at Aunt Laura's :)

I asked Chloe what her favorite part about our trip was and she said "feeding fish!". That's right, the job that takes approximately 3 seconds a day was her highlight :) Maybe there is a goldfish in our future :)

Cousins for life! :)


The second leg of our trip was a stop in at Mimi and Poppop's to visit with Noah and Charity while they were in town. April and Charity chatted over lunch:


and Chloe shared some lolly-pops with Noah :)


Another cutie! The drive home didn't seem so bad after spending time with these nice boys!
Thank you Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, Mimi, & Poppop for letting us stay! We had a wonderful time!

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 ...
