Bye Uncle Chris and Aunt Brooke!


Uncle Chris and Aunt Brooke sold their house and are in Florida now! We'll miss them terribly but we're also very excited for all their new adventures and can't wait to visit them (when it's cold here but warm there, of course)! We had a little get-together to send them off and wish them well. Good luck Uncle Chris, Aunt Brooke, Wilson and Earnie! Enjoy the beautiful ocean, have fun, be safe and call us often! We love you!

Millennium Park

Aunt Kiley turned THE BIG 30 on Saturday so we spent the day at Millennium Park and had a party for her that night! Here are a couple of pictures of Millennium Park, but not one picture I took of her party turned out! If anyone has any, please let me know. Thanks!

Happy Father's Day!

We had a nice Father's Day this year and went to the Rockford Start of Summer Celebration. We're glad we didn't have to drive far because it wasn't very good, but Olivia and Aaron still managed to have a good time on the rides!

Holland Beach

We spent Sunday at the beach in Holland. Mommy thought it was a little cold for a bathing suit, but after Olivia saw all the other crazy kids playing in the water, she just had to have hers on as well! Aiden was content in what he was wearing, especially since getting dressed and redressed isn't one of his favorite things to do...
Here are a few pictures of our day at the beach. It's hard to get them both to look at the camera at the same time, give a "normal" smile (not Olivia's famous cheesy smile) and then hold still long enough for the camera's shutter to do its thing, but hey, we try.
Big Sister, Little Brother
People actually ask if they are twins. That cracks us up.
Daddy and his kids!
Yum, sand.

The Family
Looking to see if there is any sand in there to eat. Seriously.

Olivia's 1st Gymnastics Show!

Olivia had her first real Gymnastics Show last week and had a blast! She was the smallest one there but loved every minute of it. Her favorite part was receiving her award and special prize!

Look what I got!!!
Oh, it's just so grand, isn't it?!
She's just so proud of it.
Her group, taking a bow.
