Gurnee Days

In our town, they have Gurnee Days, a community fun-fest weekend. This year we took Aiden to the firehouse and police station for a tour and activities. He loved the firehouse and had fun seeing the engines, holding the hose and playing. I think Tom had alot of fun too!!

NC Vacation

Storytime...

In the end of July we took a week vacation to North Carolina to visit Tom's family. It was a wonderful trip. The flight wasn't too bad with two lap children.. We had a great time seeing friends and family. We hit the pool, beach, pizza place, aquarium and had alot of quality time together. Thank you for such a great trip!!
