Happy Birthday to Kara!

Our awesome and loving Nanny invited the boys to the local rec pool for us to celebrate her birthday in style.  She ensured lots of yummy treats and gave everyone all the attention they deserve.  Happy Birthday Kara, we are so glad you put up with our family!!  xo

Happy Friday!!


Oh Deer!

Earlier in June I hit a deer...  Eeek!  This resulted in major damage and a few rental cars over the next few weeks.  Our favorite was the Dodge Ram!

Dutch Wonderland!

This weekend we took the boys to Dutch Wonderland.  This was the 2nd trip to Dutch Wonderland for Ben & AJ but first for Thomas.  I've filed this under 'Fun Times' - perhaps I should add the category 'Bittersweet'.  A fun adventure with my kids always involves some sort of struggle.  We've had a VERY LONG MAY with sickness.  Virus, colds, pneumonia, virus, ear infections, sinus infections, more viruses and croup.  The boys weren't doing well Friday but seemed to perk up Saturday morning so we went for it.

Thomas really enjoyed himself - though he wasn't feeling his best.  Through doses of Advil he managed to enjoy the watermark (he used these sprayers as a water fountain, be on the lookout for our update on strep throat) and ventured on a few rides as well.





 


Ben & AJ had their fears, as always, but did tackle the small coaster, giant swings, and a few other kiddie rides.













 


On the way home we stopped at the Cozy Inn for dinner as well.  A nice long day to wear everyone out!!




Swimming!

The boys have done so well this past year with swimming!  Even Thomas had lessons and loved the water!!  We have swim camps coming up this summer for everyone too.
