Lots to catch up on

Lots of things can happen in one week. My sister came to visit and brought her 3 cute kids. We got to go to some fun parks, and to the zoo. We had fun and Ali got to know her cousins a little bit better. Ali had a hard time with the intrusion on her quieter lifestyle (Jen's boys are quite loud) but as the boys loved to make her laugh, she got used to them. She especially loved my niece Madeline, who would read books to her. Now that they are gone, Madeline is missed, the boys...not so much.

From left to right: My big sister Jen, Ty, Elias, Alicia, Madeline. Enjoying the beautiful weather we had while she was here. Also, they are in their underwear because about 5 minutes before this picture was taken they all ran into the water and got soaked.


This is Madeline with the tigers at the Franklin Park zoo.


The kids on the big Croc in the Outback Trail.


Once the house was quieter Alicia spread out her papers and did what she does best...she made her own mess.

My boys are happy to be back home and running free. I have no idea what we will do in the winter.
