Someone thought it was so fun!

PS One of those was Mommy's and one was Daddy's

Somebody is a creeper -- I found this photo taken at Target by Finn.

Daddy took off for a conference last week, which meant Mama slept with two little monkeys.

Last Sunday, Fish came down with a summer cold. We spent most of the day like this.

Finn is becoming obsessed with Mommy's shoes.

On Monday night, we had a drunk driver take out about 25 feet of our bushes.

I told E that he wasn't allowed to leave for his summer conference anymore as bad things always happen. Last year, there was six inches of water in our basement. This year, sick kids, drunk drivers ripping out bushes, and... our power went out for an entire hot, sticky day before he came back.

Back to his normal self.

During the day without power, I decided to sort through Finn's shoes. Someone is a shoe horse like her mama.

Catching soccer fever!

Daddy brought Finn back a purse and a magnifying glass from his trip.

Don't tell sister, but brother is eating her fruit snacks!

Friends came to stay with us on Thursday evening. We hit up the lake for the sunset after dinner.

Gorgeous!

Lake Erie at its finest.

Finn loved throwing rocks into the lake. She would pick one up and count on her fingers "1, 2, 3!" and then throw it.

Our last night in Ohio, we all slept together. This is how I found them in the morning.

We stopped on our way out to Iowa at a McDonalds play area. I was disappointed that this was all they had for kids under 3 -- she wasn't allowed to play on the big playground.
