5th Birthday

We celebrated Luke's 5th birthday at Chuck E Cheese's! I can't believe we're celebrating birthday number 5. Years just flying by!

 We made a train table for Luke! Truly a labor of love - still more decorating to do - what fun!

We all dressed up as ninja turtles for halloween and we went trick or treating around Evanston with some friends!

Getting Ready for Halloween

Reconnecting with old friends

Went to the Niles WEst 20yr reunion and reconnected with my best friend in high school - Kira!

More Summer fun!

Angel and Venetia came over and we had a water balloon fight!

We went to the Skokie Backlot bash and played bingo and won!

Watching the Summer Olympics!

We went camping near Starved Rock!

We set off on an adventure to Northern Michigan. We had such a fun time camping and exploring!

Summer fun!

We went to Santa's Village with friends and then saw fireworks and hot air balloons!

We visited Uncle Dave at IFly!

 We made firework pictures and sent some to Granny and Grandad.


We went to Angelica's first birthday party!

We bought a new tent so that we could go camping! We set it up in the backyard to learn how to put it up!

And Uncle Jimmy is going to England for a few weeks so we said bon voyage with a backyard bbq!

And we lit lots of sparklers

Happy fourth!
