For your viewing pleasure

Matt chillin in the girls floaty

Gabe and Matt had the brilliant idea of putting the bottom of the slide into the pool and then sitting in a bucket and sliding into the water. It was really funny! I'll have to have Ben upload the video I took.

The first attempt at putting Sophia's hair in pigtails. She actually kept them in! I tried Anna's hair, but she pulled it out immediately. And it's too fine to be able to get a substantial size pony.


I love this one of David and Kathy giving the girls piggy-backs. (It was so nice seeing all the family and being at camp again. It's so beautiful!)


Matthew had the hose in his hand and kept telling Gabe he wanted to show him something. Then once Gabe got close he sprayed him. Evil kid.



Anna and Sophia didn't really like the sprinklers.





Gabe playing with bubbles at Grandma Putz's house on Memorial Day. We had lots of fun!


Yes, that's ANOTHER bruise on Anna's forehead.

Please keep Anna in your prayers, she was exposed to Hand, Foot, Mouth disease and we think she's coming down with it. Pray that none of the other kids would get it and that she would get over it quickly. Thanks!


Sweet Sophia.




Another matter of prayer......my co-worker, Karen, was just diagnosed with breast cancer. It's about the size of a golf ball and they want to do chemo, but she REALLY doesn't want to. She's pretty scared right now (both her parents died from cancer). So, if you could remember her in your prayers it'd be much appreciated. She is a strong Catholic and I've talked with her a few times about how her beliefs differ from mine, but haven't had the opportunity to have a really good conversation.


I have more pictures to put up, but I need to upload them first, so I'll Lord-willing get to it soon.

Thanks for the photos! I so loved all of them!!!! I can't even tell which one's my favorite. The shot of Sophia in the sprinkler is just priceless. Mary was the one that informed me that new photos were up on your blog and she had told me about that one, that's when I realized she was indeed talking about new pics. Couldn't wait to get home to see them so we looked through them together and laughed and oohed and aahhed through them all. I LOVE the first one of course...... and the one of Sophia with her pigtails!! She's finally got enough hair to be able to put them in...... can't wait to see Anna in them. So glad in talking to Ben, find out Anna is just teething instead having some nasty disease. So adorable of Gabe going down the slide in the dishpan!! Looking foward to seeing the video.
The due date for Susan is now past (24th) so we are all looking anxiously for the new little one. Nate and Susan will be coming for dinner tonight and then we'll be going down to Gramma's for desert.
We will be sure to call if anything occurs. By the way should it happen in the wee hours of the morning would you like us to hold off til later?
We'll also keep your friend Karen in our prayers.
Love to all

Such awesome photos! I LOVE the one of Sohpia crying. That's too cute! Your boys are so clever. What a great way to maximize their summer fun.
