Float Trip

We took the kids on their first float trip this summer and they loved it!  It rained towards the end and during the family cookout after the float trip, but everyone had a great time.

Summer Fun Continues

Dad spent time helping Grandpa Deiter clean up some things and showed Blake and me a picture of his senior prom.  We spent some time on the Katy Trail, celebrated 4th of July at Grandma Schulte's house, and spent more time at Grandpa and Abeula's.  While there I learned more about sewing and I brought home 3 caterpillars (can you see the one on my shirt?) and one of them turned into a butterfly!  We also went to the American Girl Doll store in St. Louis.

June Fun

In June we did more fun things.  We went to Grandpa and Abuela's farm and Blake sat on Grandpa's new John Deere mower.  Lauren also made an awesome craft and picture for me for Father's Day!  More about our summer in the next post.....

Trip to the Oregon coast in May

In May we went to see Nana and Papa in Beaverton, Oregon.  We spent the night at their house then went to the coast and spent several nights at a house we rented.  It was Blake's first time at the beach.  We played in the sand, flew kites, got in the water, roasted marshmallows, and had a great time!

Grant's Farm and Tadpoles

We took the kids to Grant's Farm for the first time and the highlight was feeding the baby goats.  The kids loved it!  Grandpa and Abuela have given us tadpoles a couple of times from their farm.  We haven't gotten any to grow to frogs yet, but we're still trying.

Spring Fun and Lauren Turns Six

It's been awhile since we've posted and over the next few days I'll add some pictures.  Easter came and went, Blake went fishing for the first time, and Lauren turned six.
