Outdoor Fun

The boys are loving the summer weather!  They are helping mow the lawn with the big lawn mower and their own lawn mowers!  Evan and Liam are big bike riders now!  They keep us busy!

Happy Birthday Aunt Cathy!

Family Weekend!

Life seems so busy in so many different ways.  We try to take a weekend at least once a month and just get things done and enjoy our boys!  I had to work on a friday morning, so Jon took the day off and headed to the zoo (Evan's choice).  I got to meet them there about halfway through their morning and good news, the steam train was running!

The rest of the weekend, we spent doing house chores.  Jon and I dug out one of our old horseshoe pits and made it into a fire pit.  We got to have our first fire of the year, get rid of some branches and eat smores!  




Ama and Papa Trouble!

They visited a lego exhibit!  Liam got to spend Monday with Papa and visited Gurnee Mills mall!  They went to Bass Pro, rode a train and went to rainforest cafe for lunch!








Touch a Truck and Ama/Papa sleepover

There was a touch a truck event where the kids could climb into a bunch of big trucks.  So we met Ama and Papa and had some fun!  Afterwards the boys got a sleepover (two days for Liam!) over at Ama and Papa and had a blast.

4K Farm Field Trip!

I literally had the best time with Liam a few weeks ago at his 4K farm field trip.  We went to Glacier Rocks Farms and had a blast!  Every student had an adult with them, so really it was incredibly laid back, which I LOVED (nothing worse than chasing kids around all day making sure they don't get into trouble!)

 Oh yeah, then he pet it
