Ohio Trip

My dad flew out to visit us Memorial Day weekend, then we rode back with me and the kids to Ohio so we could spend some time visiting the family. Brian joined us later in the week. The weather was a little cold to start off and so we never got to swim in Papa Soeder's pool. But we still enjoyed the week.

We got a private tour of the fire station, here is Ally trying out the truck.

 The way summer should be, enjoying dinner on the deck. The pool looks great but way too cold.

I got the chance to spend the day with my best friend from college Heather Marie and her precious girl Lainey. The kids had so much funny playing and it was great catching up.

We even got the chance to spend the day at Geneva on the Lake. The weather was beautiful and it was so nice to spend some quality time with my dad and sisters.

Summer is here...

Papa Soeder came in for a visit Memorial Day weekend and stayed with us for a week. The weather was awesome while he was here so we had to take advantage of Miss Debbie's pool. Ally even got to try out her new swim suit, she loved the water.

 Summer time means carnivals. Matt, Blake, and Aiden at the St Francis Festival on the kiddie ferris wheel.
