July

We have been busy this month....we have had a full house. The Dohertys were all here (off an on) for a visit. Pam joined us first, then Jim, and finally Colleen and Jim came up on the train. We had a lot of fun. We had a 4th of July filled with TONS of food---and Chris burning himself :) We saw Eclipse (yes!)...and we took a train ride to Chicago. Maggie had SO MUCH fun. She rode the ferris wheel and the carousel. Pam and Chris got a ton of planting done around the house and our yard looks fantastic.

We also had family pictures made at Rock Springs Park. One of the mothers (Elizabeth Highcock at High 5 Photography) from Maggie's ballet class just started her photography business and was giving away free sessions. I think she got some really good shots. I can't wait to print them out.

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer....Maggie starts ballet (again) and PRE-SCHOOL soon. I don't know if I am ready for it.

PS...I need to figure out how to get these pictures where I want them in the blog :)
