Summer Fun































This summer has been packed with tons of fun and lots of changes. The boys have enjoyed time swimming, playing outside, taking trips to the beach and Dutch Wonderland (thanks to our season pass). They love to explore, dig in the dirt, and play with their cousins. Logan finally transitioned out of his crib and into a "big boy" bed. He is such a independent little boy and has learned so much from watching his big brother. Logan enjoys dancing, playing outside and taking care of his bunny/baby. Braden has conquered his insecurities in the pool and can swim on his own (with vest/swimmies). He has grown so much in the past couple of months and has become such a big help to me. He has been coresponding with his teacher and is looking forward to going back to school where they have just completed a playground remodel.

More snow???




Winter left, Spring came and went, and now it's Summer. Where does the time go?? Here are pics to catch you up on what's been going on. We had a wonderful holiday season, lots of fun in the snow, new bikes for the Spring and lot's of pool/beach time so far this summer. Braden finished out his first year of preschool and has been corresponding with his teacher through letters. He has become very confident on his Thomas bike and has even asked us to take his training wheels off. Logan has grown into such a great little boy. His swimming skills have surpassed Braden's. He's definitely the independent one. We are enjoying the great (hot) weather and look forward to lots more fun activities this summer.....more to follow.

Photo Shoot












At GiGi's Birthday dinner we all got dressed up for a family photo shoot - holiday style. The kids all wore matching outfits. (thanks Vicky) If I didn't have such trouble with the company that printed my Christmas cards - I could have used one of these great photos. Oh well - maybe next year.
