Minnesota Summer

I don't remember now what she was so fussed up about but I am pretending it is because she looks like Nick Nolte's mug shot.

Hollan on the big potty.  Nothing has happened yet but she sure does like the dramatics of trying.

 The AMAZING play set in the new backyard!

 Holy cow look at this big girl!

 Sliding.

 "We did it!"

 Heading inside...

 Checking out the upstairs and their new rooms.

 "We have stairs!"

 Heading down to the basement.

 The whole crew in the basement.

 "Our own play area?!"

 Dude in his new yard.  With GRASS.

 New house!

 Cheers!

Look at that smile!

Cooling Off

Daddy was home sick today so after naps, we tried to stay quiet.  Which means we went outside.  Which means we ate popsicles and then smoothie pops and then when we couldn't eat anymore cold stuff, we took pictures.

And by this time we were really sweaty so we were done outside.

Hollan and I were looking at the old timey Richard Scarry book that Annie brought and one of the pages has different articles of clothing.  So Hollan decided to put on a jacket...despite the 108 degree temperature outside.

 Nothing like riding your rocking dog in a military jacket and your bloomers!

 A future in the circus perhaps?

 This girl.  She is a goofy heart melter. 

Father's Day: Part 2

A group effort to make Daddy's coffee.

 Surprise!  We met the Bergmanns and the Dibble Dangs for breakfast and swimming at the Four Seasons.

 Nothing like relaxing in a foot of "water" at the kiddie pool.  We'd like to think it's just water...but it's so warm!

 Big pool.

 John and his boys.

 Launching.

 Bibby's turn.

 Lunch in the cabana.

 Reclining and enjoying some goldfish.

Happy belated Father's Day to all!
