Do You Like Our Hats?

Grandma Margaret started a new trend...

shorts on Mallory and William's head!

They loved every minute of silliness!

July 23rd!

We had a great July 23rd!

1st we went to the zoo for the day with

my friend Nicole and her two boys.

Then we went to my cousin, Matt's

40th birthday party at night!

We are sure lovin' summer!

Dalan (hiding from me :) and Jayen...

What fun summer days we have with our friends!

Check out the "cool" boys!

Lauritzen Gardens!

Mallory and William had a play date at Lauritzen Gardens

with Andrew, Thomas, and Audrey! (The gardens are beautiful!)

It was a splendid time getting together with our friends!

Not only did Mallory and William get to see their friends,

but I got to see Kelly, Dave, and Erica too!

Can you tell in the picture above that William is saying -

"Choo-Choo"! Lauritzen Gardens had 5 different miniature trains

running through the gorgeous flowers and plants.

William LOVES hanging out with his Godmother, Kelly!

Isn't Audrey and Andrew adorable! They are such fun

little cuties... Mallory and William really enjoy their company!

Oh my gosh... I love this picture of Thomas!

Dave and Thomas hangin' in the shade...

This is the best picture I could get of Erica... she

was really busy running after Audrey and Andrew.

Lookie! Lookie!

Lookie! Lookie!

William with goofy Da Da...

and Mallory with Ma Ma and "Baby"!

Lookie! Lookie!

Lookie! Lookie!
Mallory and William have such sweetie smiles!
(We love to kiss their chubby cheeks!)

Lookie! Lookie!

As if it is a surprise to anyone...

We can rarely get William and Mallory to pose in

a picture together. This picture above was the

best picture I could get! Our babes are just too quick!

Lookie! Lookie!

Mallory and William are really getting into coloring!

(Watch out walls... here we come!)

New Roof!

Mike, our friend Jay, and a few other buddies worked

their buns off on roofing our house. Not only did they

work their buns off, but the day they started to shingle,

it was 95 some degrees! Hot! Hot! Hot!

Did I mention the roof was very necessary...

it was raining in our kitchen. Yikes!

As you can see, we had stuff thrown everywhere...

so we would take walks in the morning when it was cooler

and safer. We also had Jay's family over in the afternoon.

We had a really nice time... I just worried about the guys!

The picture above you could barely see because
of the humidity... it fogged up my camera and my glasses!


Not only did we get a new roof, but do you see our new
air conditioner?! Isn't it exciting! The joys of being a homeowner!

Summer Silliness!

William and Mallory love getting on the couch...

now that they can reach! They think they are "big"!

Grandma Margaret bought Mallory a stroller...



and William a mower! They absolutley love
their new toys! Thanks, Gma Z!

We went to Logan's 9th birthday party...

this is my cousin, Tricia's son! What a fun

Sunday afternoon!

Mallory loves 'Elmo's World'! Not only does she adore

Elmo the doll, but now we watch Elmo on TV too!

And, YES, you guessed it... William loves

'Elmo's World' too. He even hands me the remote

and says - Elmo! Too darn funny!

Silly William and Mallory!

These next couple of pictures, we went to the zoo with

Kelly and her two sons, Thomas and Andrew.

We also went with my two girls I use to nanny,

Nicole and Rachel. We had such a delightful time!

We really really enjoy going for walks at the zoo.
I think we have gone every week this summer!

Here is Kelly and baby Thomas and Andrew!

Here is Nicole, Rachel, William and Mallory!

Here is Mallory actually keeping a barrett in her hair!

William is always reading a good book!

4th of July 2010!

We had a WONDERFUL 4th of July!!!!!

We hosted at our house this year.

As you can see... Grandma Sue, Grandma Tony, &

Grandma Margaret was there.

We also had my cousins, Matt and Steve

hang out with us for the day!

It was a super terrific day with family!

Did I mention that Gma Sue makes the BEST home-made
ice cream?! It's a tradition that has been around during the
4th of July since I can remember. Now we just need the babies to
be a bit older for a wild game of wiffleball! Thanks to Gma Margaret
for helping me get everything all ready while Mikey was grilling
the most delicious burgers and dogs around!
