Pine Island cheese fest!
A friend ran into me there and couldn't believe that I would take my three kids all by myself. All I can say is, If I didn't we wouldn't go anywhere. I'm not one to sit around and wait for Ryan to get off work. He likes to rest when he gets a chance anyways...
Dennis watched Andrew while I took Zola around the merry go round.
Weekend with friends at the cabin
So much fun and no bugs.
My awesome friend Heidi got a job in Oregon and will be moving. :(
The gorilla baby...
Kaiya and Andrew
Fishing with sticks
summer projects
Kobs picnic fun! What an awesome improvement! We now have our picnic at a beautiful park with plenty of room to spread out. 60 years strong of a tradition.
Andrew loves his grandpa.
The races! Dennis and Eva doing the crab race.
... and the sack race.
Auntie grandma dressed up as a clown.
three legged race with dad.
tug of war
Patrick and Dennis with some distant cousin giving bunny ears.
Grandma was holding all of the prizes for the kids.
Jordan had a huge bubble for the bubble blowing contest.
Dennis was so excited for the picnic this year because he learned how to blow bubbles. But, I never did get a picture of one. Here its popped on his face.
My peonies were gorgeous!
This boy at 7 months. Cute thing is pulling up to stand and is so proud of it!
Swimming Lessons! Zola started this year. It taught her how to be in a organized group more than anything. She learns a lot more with us in the big pool sans lessons...
She did learn to kick pretty well though.
Andrew's favorite place! The bathroom.
Zola is totally zonked. She dressed herself... her pants are inside out.
Dennis's tball! Zola's favorite thing to do is rolling down the hill while we watch that riveting game.
Andrew was there too!
