4th of July Chicago

We had a great week in Chicago over the 4th of July!  Enjoying time with my folks, the Larson's, the Anetsberger's and other college friends!  It was steamy so we beat the hit by hitting the splash pad and the beach on Lake Michigan!

KC Weekend

Since Nate was in Russia, the kids and I went to KC to see the Larson's for a few days!  Love that they are so close to us now!!  It was HOT, so spent lots of time at their pool and even had a water balloon fight!

Night Out

Nate and I hit the town before he went to Russia last week!  

Had to post pics, since we never have any of just the two of us!

Vacation Bible School

Mia had a great week at VBS!  And, is of course still singing all of the fun songs she learned!
