Marshall's Baptism

Here are some pictures from Marshall's Baptism.

Field Trip Day

Grammy and Papa took me and the kids to this cool place in Marshfield called Jurustic Park. There were tons of cool sculptures. It was hotter than hell but we had fun anyways.

Mall of America

We had our nephew Marshall's baptism this Sunday in Strum so we decided to just keep driving to Minneapolis to take the kids to a very short trip to the MOA, mainly the aquarium and Lego Land. Uncle Chris came with us and we had lots of fun.

Lily, Eli & Uncle Chris were brave enough to touch the star fish. Turns our Mike and are chicken shits when it comes to sea creatures.

Yeah...that whole things Legos

So after hanging out at Lego Land. Lily wanted to go on a ride...and she picked the log ride. For those of you who have not been on this ride it has 2 major drops so we made her watch other people go down at first and explained it to her over and over. And she still wanted to go...with me and uncle Chris. So we went. Everything seamed fine until we went around the first curve and Lily and I got soaked and I mean soaked...not splashed soaked! Then we went down the first drop and Lily screamed and cried until she got a  slushy and popcorn.

As you can Lily and I weren't as into it as uncle Chris to say the least.

O'thank God we hit the bottom!

Here are Lily and I soaked

Mike and Eli waiting for a much calmer ride

On the way back to Point Mike asked Lily if she would go on the log ride again.

Lily: "No"

Mike: "What about when you are 5"

Lily: "Maybe when I'm 6" :)

Lily's first Soccer Game

We took the kids to Washington school to play on the play ground and had a great day.

We also went out for Scott's 21st Birthday/ Father's Day with our Amherst crew and had a blast at Harbor Bar
