Fireworks, Family and Fun!

We've had such a busy, fun week with all of our families here! We had a trip to the zoo, to the family museum, many trips to the swimming pool, a river ride, and a 4th of July baseball game! Hannah was so spoiled and loved all of the attention from her grandparents, aunts and uncles. We blessed Emma on Sunday, and it was beautiful. We really missed everyone who couldn't be here.
Hannah is slowly adjusting to having no one here. It was pretty emotional for all of us when everyone left. Christmas seems too far away...


Russ caught a foul that almost knocked Emma out...Hannah was so excited because she had waited the whole game to try and catch one. Her and her aunts stood down by the wall waiting for a ball or autograph forever...She can't stop talking about her famous baseball now! Her aunts were pretty upset that they didn't catch it!
Hannah was in usual meltdown mode at lunch. We always kept her up way past her naptime, and paid the price :) Grandpa W. thinks he's hilarious.
We love going to John Deere to check out all of the huge tractors. Last time we went Hannah as too terrified to climb into any of them, this time she was kicking everyone out so she could climb up!

I couldn't get this pic to turn, but it shows how much Emma is growing...
This is usually how we found Grandpa T. Hannah doesn't seem impressed.


We love Uncle Mikey!
All of the aunts were such a huge help! We miss them all.


Thank you everyone for making the long drive out here, and spending time with us. come back soon!

It's so fun to see all the things everyone is up to. It's a nice way to keep in touch with those you don't see anymore!

I didn't know you lived so far away! Sorry about all the flooding you have had. I hope you haven't been effected by it too bad!
