Everyday moments

The everyday moments are sometimes the best ones. Here are some of the ones we've been enjoying lately:

Have I mentioned that we love the water??

We have spent so much time swimming this summer. Here's a few photos from our beach/waterpark adventures!

Zoo trip: Como edition

The girls and I took a trip to Como Zoo on a gorgeous Monday morning. We had a good time wandering the zoo grounds, watching the Sparky show and admiring the butterflies in the butterfly house.

High-Fiving a polar bear!

Uncle Pat

My brother, Patrick, moved into a new house with his girlfriend last month so we headed into Anoka to check out the new place. They have a very nice place and we even had a chance to get some ice cream and stroll downtown Anoka a bit. Thanks for having us, Pat and Siera, and congrats on the new place!

Loving on Bridget, the cat. Sorry Achilles, I still think you're pretty great!

Busy month!

So far we have been spending July checking out new parks, celebrating birthdays, building a birdhouse from scratch (way to go, Patrick!), visiting with family and friends and swimming...a lot. And the month is only half done!
