Cousin Time

I had my 20th high school reunion---I cannot believe it has been 20 years since high school.  It makes me feel old.  Well while Todd and I were enjoying time with my old friends, my parents had the kids along with Kaylee for the evening.  Here is a few pictures of the three amigos!

Popsicle Fun

Yummy popsicles!  Avery is so funny.  She can hardly finish one without it melting everywhere.  She takes these little licks, and then holds it for a while.  This was our afternoon treat several days this summer.

Our Little Golfer

What would summer be without a little golf?  Nolan is taking after his daddy, and he enjoys hitting golf balls.  He loves going to the driving range with Todd.  I think we have a future golfer on our hands.

Dupage Children's Museum

Nolan and Avery got to spend the day with their cousin Kaylee, and Grandma and Grandpa Hassman, while I was able to catch a long bike ride(56 miles) in Racine with friends in preparation for my 1/2 ironman.   The grandparents took the kids to the Dupage Children's Museum for the day, which by the looks of the pictures---the kids had a BLAST!  Here are a few snapshots from their adventure.

Happy 4th of July

The 4th was a weekend celebration this year!  Every year it becomes more fun as they both get older and can enjoy it more. We enjoyed the fireworks, parade, and an Inverness Park District Party. 

A little flag celebration at the fireworks

Nolan enjoyed the parade with our friends!  He loved catching all the candy from the floats.

Avery LOVED the cotton candy!
