July 2007

Dana did an amazing job raising money and walking in the Avon Breast Cancer walk. Congratulations, we are so proud of you Dana! July is always a good time back home, Joey and Ella got to spend a lot of quality time with their cousins. We had a great time and Mudelein days going on rides, eating at the Mudelein Munch, and even going on a pony ride. We also had a lot of fun watching Andrew's baseball game and all going to the beach. Some pictures of the cousins at Grandmas house as well. What great memories with the family. Because we don't live close we like to make the most out of every moment we have.

Summer 2007 Fun

Front Yard Fun

Summer 2007 was filled with many moments like this...fun times in the front yard running through the sprinkler...playing with our toys and hanging out with Bo.

4th of July Weekend

4th of July Weekend 2007

Before heading to Chicago we stop at the neighborhood ice cream social where the Aster Lane Gang had a chance for a photoshoot. We got into Grandma's late Friday night and by early Saturday morning we met Aunt Dorie, Jacob and Clare at the farm to help feed the chickens. Oh, my sister Dorie she truly is the ol'natural

one. Altough I question the farmers attire, I admire Dorie for the things she introduces her kids to. Thanks for having us come along we truly enjoyed it. We also had the chance to enjoy Andrew's baseball game that night and Wow! is he great. Joey enjoyed himself at the game a litle too much as he got in a fight with a boy almost 2years older then him.

Joey's 4th Birthday!

Joey 4th Birthday Weekend!

We can't believe Joey has turned 4yrs. Time has gone so fast. We hope you enjoy the memories captured from his birthday weekend. Mom and dad gave Joey his bike, he was excited but was asking where the rest of his gifts were :) This might be becuse in the past year I have used the "maybe for your birthday" trick

when we were in stores and Joey found something he wanted. I think when it actually came to his birthday he was remembering all those times thinkng he would have a whole lot of gifts to open....well he did, just had to wait until Saturday. The theme this year was I Spy...
