Fireworks!! " Ooh Aah" or "Big Mess"?!

July 3rd - We went to my aunt Susie's house to hangout and watch Shawano's fireworks. Allie got to play with her second cousin, Carter. They were taking turns playing peek-a-boo behind the tree

Carter and Allie play really well together.

Finally it was time for the Fireworks. Allie was scared at first but never cried. We were trying to get the kids to say Ooh Aah! after each firework, but Allie would always say Ooh BIG MESS! LOL I suppose it was a big mess in the sky:)

Holding on tight to gma and papa while watching the fireworks

July 4th -When everyone woke up the next day, we had breakfast and then Allie was able to enjoy spending time with my cousin Erics little girl, Emma. Allie is quite the little helper when it comes to babies.

The rest of the day, we just stayed home and filled her little pool up and relaxed.

Building The Garage

June 25th - Allison's gmpa Al and Gma Mary came from Iowa to visit us and Neil's brother Charlie came along to help with building our garage. Our nephew Devin, who lives in Texas, is a very lean and tall 6ft 5 inch, 15 year old! also came cuz he is staying the summer with gmpa Al and gma Mary. Charlie had his kids along too:). So, Allison had lots of play time with her cousins that she doesnt see very often. Devin 15, Jake 13, and Lillianna 3

Well, the weekend was over and the guys got allot accomplished... there was only one bad injury...Gmpa Al sprained his ankle. We hope its getting better gmpa Al!

We have lots to do yet on the garage. It still needs to be roofed and all that good stuff but at least the hard part is done. Thank You to all who helped!

Allie and Lillie had a good time playing together
