Tim did his first cyclocross race! We were very proud of him and went out to cheer him on! Then we stayed and had a picnic while the racers passed us by!




We also planted a tree this year to commemorate Tim's graduation and Anna's first birthday. Thanks Gramma and Grampa Grogg for your generous gift!

Apple Orchard!

We went to the Orchard twice this year! Frankly, two trips kept us sane and we got to go with Grandpa and Grandma James and Aunt Jodie! We all had a blast! We picked apples, did the corn maze, and played in the yard. The slide certainly brought me back to my childhood, it was so much fun! Anna had a blast both times and we can't wait to go again next year.

The Aquarium!

I am going to be making several posts about this past summer and this fall so far. So there will be several posts in succession, catch them all!

Recently we went to the Shedd Aquarium with our best friends, Ryan, Ivy, Nora and Emily. The kids had a wonderful time! The adults also had a great time and felt like kids again! It was so much fun to see the girls and how much they've grown!
