Summer

Wow, I can't believe it's been over a month since I last blogged!
We have been SO busy, so I think I'll just share a few of the pictures.

We finished school during the last week of May, we 've been to Valleyfair 6-7 times (depending on which of us you ask), the boys have attended 3 library events and finished over 1/2 of their reading lists already, we've celebrated Brady and Logan's birthdays, and the big boys attended their first basketball camp.

Here are the pictures:

Having fun at Valleyfair!

I have some fun pictures from basketball camp too, and from Brady's first Twins game, but they are on Peter's phone. Hopefully I can get them from him soon.


I also wanted to mention the incredible weekend that the boys were able to spend with Grandma and Grandpa a couple weeks ago. They got to spend 2 nights sleeping in the camper, having a bonfire, visiting a couple parks, planting flowers at the cemetery, playing lawn darts, and wearing Grandma and Grandpa completely out :).
Peter and I also received the gift of a peaceful weekend together. We took advantage of spending time together at home. We went out for a couple meals, went for several walks, and played a million of our favorite board games. It was very relaxing and we felt so blessed for our special weekend alone. I was really starting to miss my noisy boys by Sunday afternoon!
