Big Girl Bed

Zoe has a big girl room now. She got a new bed this weekend.

Hummingbird Festival

We went to New Salem State Historic Site this weekend for the Hummingbird Festival. For $5.00 you could adopt a hummingbird. They banded it and you got to hold it and then release it. If it comes back and the catch it they will send you a note that it came back.

Zoe got to feel the hummingbirds heartbeat.

HSM Dance Camp

Dance camp with the theme being High School Muscial. They had a lot of fun.

Chicago

Zoe at the Cloud Gate in Millennium Park. Lots of fun.

Storms Tonight

Waiting for the big bolt and this was it. Not quite as big as I would have liked it but I still like the photograph.

Happy Birthday Morgan

What a great day we had. Morgan is 8 years old now.

Roy G Biv

Today was a rainy day all around. We were awaken by thunderstorms in the night with Chuck our Chocolate Lab (11yo) panting and trying to dig his way to the crawl space. This is a new fear for him. Then we had the Women's Distance Festival a 2 mile race that I ran and then the girls both competed in a childrens fun run. They did awesome. Zoe waved at all the people as she ran. Morgan gave it all she had and finished quite well. Both girls walked away with a trophy and a great experience. All of this was done before 10am.

Tonight we took the girls for a walk and on the way home there was the most beautiful rainbow that I have ever seen. Morgan decided to jump roap. The girl were both asleep by 9pm tongight. They are worn out. I hope Chuck sleeps well tonight too.
