Summertime Fun

Since June seemed more like March this year we all seem so busy now trying to fit all of our summer activities into August before school starts again.

We've been doing a lot of things but have not always had the camera with us so I have been slacking when it comes to updating the blog.


The end of July I had a Mary Kay booth at the Washington Cty. Fair on Friday and Saturday so Steve and Olivia came both days. Olivia is now hooked on roller coasters, tilt-a-whirls and even the ferris wheel (where she had to try to reassure ME there was nothing to be afraid of!!)

July 31st we went to Steve's work picnic which was held at the Milw. Zoo. That is always fun (when you have a little kid). We got in to the zoo, parking and many activities for free. Not to mention stopping at the company picnic site at lunchtime to eat, drink and visit with Steve's co-workers. Then it was off to more of the zoo. It was a long, hot day but very nice.

The next weekend we spent all day Saturday at the Milwaukee Air Show. That was also hot but is always a lot of fun to sit back an relax by the lakefront.




The following Monday, Steve took off of work and we went down to the Milwaukee Art Museum. Steve's cousin Sally works there and gave us the grand tour of the China Exhibit and some of the regular part of the museum. She and her husband Paul then grilled steaks for us at their beautiful condo overlooking the lakefront. It was a very enjoyable day.






This past Saturday we had tickets through the Civil Air Patrol to attend the Brewers Game. To help payback just a little bit of babysitting we had tickets to take Grandma and Grandpa along too. We tailgated before the game, had a great time watching the Brewers win against the Pirates and then we stopped for dinner on the way home.

Lot's of fun!! Now it is time to start thinking about getting ready for school and all-day Kindergarten!!
