Wacky Zachy, Anne-boy, Noodles, and Harry all piled into Lulu and Pops bed. (nicknames from Lulu and Pops (Anne's mom and dad)). Explanation...Zach is wacky, Alex is very much like I was as a little one, all Faith will eat is Noodles, and Harrison would only let Lulu call him Harry if it was "Harry Potter", but that wouldn't work because "he didn't have the right glasses".
Harrison and Faith at the butterfly house in Faust Park, St. Louis. The kids were so excited to have butterflies land on them, but Lulu was the only one lucky enough to have them.
Alex and Zach had a blast jumping on the trampoline at my cousin Laurie's house. Laurie and Todd were nice enough to host us for an evening of great food and catching up with cousins. Brian and Michi came all the way from Germany, and Steve and Nat came all the way from Virginia! It was great to see everyone, and especially to introduce Ian to the crew!
Pops needed Harrison's help chopping down this tree in their backyard. Harrison was ready for work with his Sponge Bob work gloves!
My brother Scott and I had a stroll down memory lane (as did Mom and Dad) when we headed down to our old childhood haunt of Lake Wauwanoka. Mom and Dad are selling the lots that were beside our old house (if anyone is interested let me know;-)) and we went with them to show the lots to a prospective buyer...I'm sure they'll take back-ups, though! Anyway, the kids had a lot of fun swimming in the lake at the beach and it was fun for Scott and I to show them how we used to spend our summers when we were little.
