Summer Fun!!!

Summer 2011:  with graduation parties, birthday parties, pool times, vacations, road trips, and weddings - we knew our days would be hectic.  But....  this hectic lifestyle is exactly what we signed up for and welcomed it and all of its surprises.  We also knew this would be the Summer of the Alexi, we just didn't know he'd learn to walk so early.  With him being mobile, plus the already existing spread offense of Austin and Ava, we decided to take on the summer challenge and enjoy it.  Don't worry, the kids still ate their veggies, exercised, while Mommy and Daddy read them their summer books.  One final note, I'm glad I started this blog, or we'd never remember what we did this summer.  Now....  please check our latest update....

Our Alexi is 1!!!

Too much kool-aid???

Austin, learns how to payback his Dad.  I was so proud, I laughed.

1st day on the bike, with helmet of course.  He still hasn't learned how to stop.

This move, baffled everyone


5 (fast) kids, 3 adults, 1 stroller.  Its so much easier when I'm taking pictures.

When the adults are CLEARLY outnumbered by the kids, this is the only souvenir picture at New Buffalo Beach.
