Grosse Pointe Park

We love our visits to Grosse Pointe.  We hadn't been back in a couple years so we were excited to get back there!  We spent time at the parks, walking around the neighborhood, and visiting our friends! 

She played so hard! 

Audrey blew a tire on one of the walks so her and her bike got a spot in the wagon! 

This is proof of a perfect trip! 

Good Bye Harleys

John, Darcy, Lucy, and Charlotte moved in next door to us three years ago.  As an active Marine family we knew they would only be next door for three years....what we didn't know is how fast that time would go.  The girls became fast friends as did the adults.  Living right next door it was easy to spend a lot of time together and for the moms to depend on each other for lots of favors! The last week was full of good byes and one last everything!  

Our last big outing was a trip to Columbus for the children's museum. 

And when the house was empty and ready for closing there was a serious game of hide and seek! 

And then it was time to say good bye for now! 

When they moved in Caroline wasn't born and Charlotte was 3 months old! 

Good bye for now sweet friends! 

July 4th

We haven't been in Indianapolis for 4th of July in many years.  It is always our weekend in Fort Wayne but with it falling in the middle of the week and Daddy having a new job we decided to stay home.  We spent the day swimming and playing with the Harleys before their big move.  Then Mr. John set off fireworks in front of our house.  It was a fun day! 

June FUN

June is always an exciting month for us with the start of summer break! I am not sure where our days go but they are busy and fun! 

It has become tradition to go to the neighborhood fish fry on the last day of school for dinner.

We got to celebrate cousin Charlotte's birthday with her! 

We try to be outside as much as possible.

Most mornings we start our day with a walk and bike ride 

We spend plenty of time in our backyard playing and doing crafts too! 

Audrey is back in swim lessons and doing so well! 

Caroline has figured out how to use my phone to take pictures.

Audrey was so excited to wake up to her St. Thomas sign! 

Most days you can find a spa in our backyard

We spend lots of time at the Children's museum in the summer! 

We always have a full couch at the end of the day.

Sometimes she forgets she is the little sister! 

We love all our time at the pool! 

Caroline stands at this window and yells for our neighbors every chance she gets! 

This is what Caroline looks like most nights by dinner time after trying to keep up all day!  

We can officially take family bike rides now!
