Today we went to the Aquarium. It was so nice to go out. I love both these pictures, one is me and James looking at sharks, and the other one you can actually see me taking the picture if you look close.

Look at my two twins. James wants to be like Daddy. So cute!

A colorful personality.

When Nikki was born, some friends of ours who chaired a Beer & Brat fundraiser for the fire dept. gave us one of their t-shirts for Nikki. Nikki wore it, Madi wore it, and now Lilli is wearing it. "Of all the low down sneaky unscrupulous Beer & Brat days, I liked Newport's the best." (And we did like it - fun times.)

Annie & I went with dad this morning, to help him set up some jumps. While we were waiting for him here, she started breaking sticks & I told her about the famous 'Uncle Timmy coming home from kindergarten' movie.

It may be hard to see in this picture but there were two single strands of spider web, one going from the maple tree to the ground, but the most amazing one was spanning across the driveway. How did that get built?

Marla August 12, 2010

Wonder what he's listening to.

Maureen August 12, 2010

We went camping at Indiana Dunes State Park tonight. The campground there is really nice. We're hoping to go back again some time in September, maybe.

Miranda August 12, 2010

This has become quite a project. I started organizing my pictures and scrapbooks...

One of my doctor office visits today. I had just had an EKG.

We went to Flat Top Grill to celebrate Allison's birthday. It was fabulous! Happy 19th, Al!

Miranda August 11, 2010

We went to the scrap yard today. I find it just amazing...G also loves it, but he fell asleep right before we got there.

Marla August 11, 2010

I checked out a few waiting rooms today. Colleen wasn't feeling very well so I drove her to a couple of doctor appointments today.

"Secret Colours" at Circus skatepark.

Miranda August 9, 2010

We celebrated our neighbors birthday tonight!

Margie August 9, 2010

I alphabetized all the kid's books on my bookshelf. And now I have been writing down each title and author so that I can make up a list of the books I own. It will make it easier when I need books for the lessons and themes I teach. I can quickly see if I have the book, or if I need to go to the library. Now that I have hand-written the titles of all 639 books, I can go ahead and type them up. Whew!

I can feel my arm now and it's really sore. Ice is my friend. it's pretty swollen still.

Marla August 8, 2010

We were going to Borders, so we brought Eric's computer with to see if we could vote for "Secret Colours" again. It didn't work. If you haven't voted yet please do. Thanks. http://chicago.thedelimagazine.com/
