Vermont Trip with Mary Ellen's Family

 We spent 2 weeks at my parents camp in Vermont this summer.  We also rented the camp next door so that we could spread our family of 25 (??!!) or so throughout the space.  We had an absolute blast.  There were 14 little cousins running around together!

Park and More from May/June

My new mop for mother's day!!! :)  (All these photos are from May/June) Even the kids can dust mop for me!  It is awesome! Thank you Joe:)

 What is better than a little homemade tool belt?  Unfortunately, neither kid has loved this thing for too long, but at least John is enjoying it a little bit here. :)

 D's new saxophone. Loves it.
 We found this AWESOME playground in Ann Arbor. We were getting sick of the same old parks, so drove out there to try out a new one.  Big success! The whole place was a farm-theme. So cute.  Tractor playground on right, and red "Barn" playground in center.





 John was JUST starting the walk at this point.










 Dominic likes to pack his backpack full of books and pretend he's going to the library or "school."
