Our Summer in a Nutshell-

 Time at Innsbrook with Bebe & Grandad.

 Cousin time with Bebe.

 Ben got to hold his new cousin, Molly.

 She looooved doing dishes!

 They got along for 5 minutes ...

 Nora tried the trike.

 Nora's first canoe ride.

 Sand castle time!

 Pink milkshakes ... YUM!

Balsa wood airplanes ... fun!

Summer Hair-

We shaved Ben's hair this summer! We always kind of wanted to but he would never let us. He was hesitant (to say the least) but now he LOVES it. He looks a lot older and we've been told girls at camp want to rub his head - uh oh! I guess that's why Uncle Tim has had a buzz for so long ...

Muny-

Bebe took us to see Shrek the Musical at the Muny. We had great seats and had a blast. Ben LOVED the show (especially the fart and burp song ... right up his alley). It was a great night, thanks Bebe!

Park Morning, Take 2-

So we were more prepared for the park today ... swimsuit, towels, water toys ... and met Bebe and Grandad for some extra fun.

Park Morning!

We had a fun morning at the park with cousin Maggie!

... Then the sprinkler came on and the girls wanted to play. So I said SURE as long as you don't get too soaked ... You can see how well that worked out ;) We had no towels, change of clothes, but we had FUN! Who cares, it's SUMMER!!
