From the (Recent) Archives

These were taken during the last few weeks from my phone.

From July 3rd in our basement.



From July 10th somewhere in Minneapolis.



From July 13th in Wadsworth.



This afternoon GG and Papa came over and we had a very nice time together. Simon wanted to go home with them apparently.



From earlier this evening at Illinois Beach State Park.

Where'd They Go?

The house is eerily quiet now that uncle Dan, aunt Maria, cousins Samuel and Jacob have left. But we still have the pics to remember the insanity!





















Most of the dinners were getting the kids fed, bathed, and put down, and then the adults ate. Monday night, however, we timed it a bit better and sat down for a very nice dinner made by mommy.



We almost got all of them to look and smile at the camera simultaneously, but that darn, tricky Jacob eluded us.

Helping the Helper

Our lawn service guy, Jason, was over just now to cut the grass. There are no free lunches here, so Samuel had to get to work to cover his stay.
