So I can not believe that it is already September.  We have been so busy with trips and house projects, so I haven't had any time to update pictures so this is the summer in a couple posts. 

We have a zoo membership so we have been there quite a few times.  Addy and Graham love the little carousel right when you come into the zoo. 

The kids also enjoy feeding the animals.  Graham is much more brave then Addy.  She just puts a piece on the edge and pushes it towards the animal, but Graham is right up in there feeding from his hand.

While the boys went fishing, us girls (and Graham) went to Bismarck to visit Brenna.  We also picked up Kelly on Saturday and took him on a river boat cruise.  The kids also loved it, especially Graham who loves anything that moves.

For the Fourth of July we went to Mandan for the Parade (which was cancelled due to weather) and the street fair.  The weather cleared up and we were able to have a great time.

The next day we drove to Ina and Randy's cabin in Ottertail to spend a week with family from Indiana and North Dakota.  The kids had so much fun playing with new cousins and staying up late.  It was great to see everyone.

Graham is not much for water but could play in the sand all day.  His sister was just the opposite and she was usually the first one in the water.

This is the other activity that kept Graham busy.  He could push something around the yard all day.

 

Addy made a car at daycare.

We also got around to getting more sand in the play area for the kids so the kids had fun helping unload the sand and then playing in the trailer.  Dad even took them for a ride from the yard to the driveway but it was the greatest for them.

Then we had to enjoy a popsicle

We also got Graham's birthday present set up so Sister had to show him how its done

Time to paint a picture for Grandma and Grandpas anniversery

I will try to get pictures from Graham's 2nd Birthday party next.
