Happy Father's Day!

We had a wonderful Father's Day! We spent the morning and first part of the afternoon with my parents and Justin, Lana, Lydia and John and then went up to Mike's grandparents' house later in the afternoon and evening. Here are some pictures from Father's Day.

Brody playing at Grandpa Tony and Grandma Alice's house. Notice the spots on his head? He had 2 rough falls this weekend and forgot to brace himself with his hands both times...he looks pretty rough!

Splash Pad and a Wedding!

On Saturday morning we took the kids to the splash pad at Oak Park. Brody loved it and was soaked instantly. Aubree was a little more reserved, but she really enjoyed it, too!








Then, on Saturday afternoon, we went to our friends' wedding. It was a beautiful wedding and Aubree and Brody had lots of fun dancing and playing with friends!

Gymnastics and sprinkler fun!

Aubree is going to gymnastics through the rec twice a week and loves it! Here she is doing a headstand with help.

Walking across the balance beam "all by herself"! She was very proud that she didn't need anyone to hold her hand anymore!


Aubree taking a drink from the sprinkler.


Brody stayed around the outside edges at first...


So much fun!

Running together - holding hands. It was so cute!


It didn't take long for him to get wet - he loved it!


He figured out that when he picked up the sprinkler it would spray all over and usually got Aubree and Mom really wet!


Time out for another drink!

Thanks Uncle Jared, Aunt Jamie and Allison for the fun sprinkler!!

Swimming and Sarah's wedding!

We went to Fargo on Friday. My friend, Sarah, got married on Saturday. It was a fun weekend full of swimming on Friday night and Saturday morning and the wedding on Saturday.

Brody all ready to go swimming!

Aubree couldn't wait!

Aubree starting off on the little slide.

She thought it was pretty fun!

Brody swimming in his tube. He loved the water!

Aubree going down one of the bigger slides.

Aubree loved the punch, but I think she liked drinking it from the fancy glass better!

Fun times!

My cousin, Andrea, and her family came to stay with us last Saturday night. Aubree and Grace love to play together and were so happy to have a "sleepover" together. Here they are before church on Sunday.



Brody's classic "cheese" smile! Love it!
