Summertime, and the livin' is....crazy!

Whoever claims that summer is a time to rest and relax is out of their mind! We have been on the go so much over the past few weeks that we can't keep track of what day it is! Some of our activities have included: visiting the Yellow River Game Ranch with the Beckmans, swimming in our backyard kiddie pool and at the Woods of Parkview pool, staying at Nana's house while she was on her cruise, visiting the Royal Family, celebrating Mommy's birthday, and heading north to visit family in Newburgh and Chicago.

We have another trip planned for July 4-11; we will be going to Gulf Shores with the Stewart family. Hopefully the drive will not send Natalie into a frenzie again. After two of the longest 7-hour car rides ever, we have determined that there is nothing we can do to keep our little princess happy in the car. She just screams and makes herself sick doing so. Mommy and Natalie booked a flight home from Chicago and sent the boys back home via Newburgh in the car. Fortunately, Natalie was wonderful on the plane! Whew! Enjoy some pics from our busy summer!

A deer's favorite meal...graham crackers.

This deer wanted to check out Natalie's ride.

He has no idea what he is in for if she wakes up!
