We took the kids over to see great grandpa Eddie on his 89th birthday.

Day 167

Sometimes, it takes the simplest thing to remind us that

Life is Good!

Day 166

This is a very special shelf in my house.

It would take too long to explain it all to you.

Let's just say there is a very special preschooler who loves the White Sox.

One of his teachers loves the Cubs.

We have had a lot of fun with this over the last three years.

It makes me sad, but proud that he is now a big kindergartener.

A special treat from one of my preschoolers.

It's so cute, I hate to eat it.

It is exciting stuff when you find your cousin on the playground

on the last day of school.

He is so proud of it and I'm so proud of him.

Pretty pink peony at dusk.

Day 156

That is one big bee!

Thank you big telephoto lense.

Day 155

So pretty.

Day 154

Only Natalie would find it necessary to be airborn into 6 inches of water.

The girls had a blast in the new pool that Natty got from Aunt Katie and Uncle Mark for her birthday. Don't tell their mommy that I couldn't totally crop her out of the picture!

Day 153

I don't know what this flower is,

but I love the color.
