Summer Days

We've really been enjoying the warm weather! It was warm enough to even pull out our kiddie pool. The kids really enjoyed themselves. Especially when we added the water balls and Daddy. Endless fun!





Emma is full of smiles for anyone who will stop and talk to her. She especially loves Jacob. Rachel is a very close second. All they have to do is kneel down next to her and she'll give them a big cheesy smile. She's even started "talking" with lots of oh's and aaah's. Sorry the picture is a little blurry.

Jacob and Rachel LOVE the rocking chair in Emma's room. We have never had a rocking chair before and I finally decided that we needed to get one. Best decision I ever made! Love it, love it!

Michael took Jacob to play ping pong at the Columbus Club one Saturday morning. You have never seen a happier Jacob. He thought he was SO grown up. He even had his own water bottle. Michael mentioned that Jacob did a great job practicing technique and learning how to use the paddle but like a true 4 year old was just as happy picking up all the ping pong balls with the cool machine they have there.


Loving the zoo. Our year round zoo pass is one of our favorites and we have our favorite things to see. One of them is the tiger. 'course this isn't the tiger we come to see but a fun statue next to it.



Hooray for Summer!

Where'd you get the kiddie pool? and about how much, if I may ask? (trying to decide if it would be worth it...)
how are things going with dairy?

I am so glad you have a rocking chair. Doesn't it make a WORLD of difference? Miss you guys!

Maybe Jacob will be able to give his Dad some ping pong competition in about 15 years!
