Kids in front of the lilies

The lilies are in bloom in the backyard, so we posed the kids in front of them for some pictures. And Aedan has learned how to blow bubbles. It's still pretty messy, but fun to watch!

Happy 4th of July!

Steve, Aedan's class made you a card for the 4th of July to thank you for your service. It is the sweetest thing! I probably won't mail it since it's about 2 ft by 2 ft...and because I think it will make a neat keepsake for Aedan. I took a close-up of his hand prints so that you could see where they were at in the card. What a thoughtful gift! I'll post some pictures of the kids later today or tomorrow.

4th of July Concert

Grandpa Ray and I took Aedan and Alana to the weekly municipal band concert...and of course it was a 4th of July theme this week. The AMVETS handed out flags to all of the children (Aedan got a picture with one of them), and then they had a children's parade around the park. My filming isn't that great because I'm trying to hold Aedan's hand and film the other kids at the same time...but he had a lot of fun and loved getting to march by the band! The other video is of him jumping around inbetween eating popcorn. Believe it or not, he does that for the entire concert!
