Finally I'm getting a moment to blog! We've been around the midwest visiting family in Champaign and Iowa for the last week and a half. When did this summer get so busy? Let's just get right to it. I'll not talk much, but instead let the pictures do the talking and show you what we've been up to the last month or so.
Noah feeding a bite to his sister. She clearly enjoyed it.
Noah's summer obsession: "ball-ball" The last few days he has literally asked us to play ball every waking moment of the day - either carrying around a baseball glove and bat/ball or a basketball.
These pictures start a series where we are visiting the Japanese garden near our house - it's really cool and Jason discovered it recently while on a walk with the kids. It dates back to the World's Columbian Exposition here in Chicago. Everything from the World's Columbian Exposition has been demolished except the old Palace of Fine Arts, which is now the Museum of Science and Industry
and this Japanese garden. Come visit us and we'll take you there!
Dylan loves to bring bread and feed the ducks there.
What you can't see is that I am yelling "hold on to her!" while I take this picture.
Queen of the world!
Mommy/daughter cuddles while we have a snack in the garden.
Chewing on grass.
Guess where they learned that from? (it's hard to see in this pic, but they all have grass in their teeth)
"Happy and Blessed" - putting on a Beatitude Attitude show for us on 4th of July (on Grandma and Grandpa Karen and Warren's deck).
Playing frisbee golf in G&G's backyard.
Dylan and Auntie Susie were out on the backyard picking flowers .
"Noah - can you do surprise face?"
Laundry hamper FUN! Dylan figure out how to get in here by herself, and of course, monkey see, monkey do.

What wonderful pictures. There are a couple I'd like copies of for sure! My favorite, of course, is the reenactment of the Beatitude Attitude. You are a good sport, Jason.

What a beautiful family! It looks like you've been having fun! Those kiddos are growing up so fast. Dylan looks so cute with her hair up! :)
I am so glad I got to see your kids while you were home visiting. They are growing up quickly! Dylan is such a charmer and Noah has an awesome smile. I really enjoyed getting to see their personalities.
I also forgot to thank you for letting us borrow Rock Band. We loved it! Your sister has turned us all into addicts. Thanks again for letting us use it. :-)
These are such great pictures. I love the one in the basket. Noah looks like he is posing for a senior portrait! We'll be in town soon and I'll be in touch with details. Hope we can get together.
