Summer until now....

We have been very busy I will try to recap. June we participated in the Tour de Fat in DC and had a lot of fun! After my school year ended I worked a little bit on a STEM Project for the next school year. Then I spent the rest of the time before we left for the Midwest lounging and relaxing at home trying to beat the heat. We packed up our SUV and headed to Centerville (South of Dayton), OH to see the Wackers. It was really great hanging out with them. Grant gave Colin his hot wheels bike with no training wheels, CJ is a bit nervous so we are practicing. After the stop in Ohio we drove to Indianapolis to see the Chase family. Had a good time we took in the zoo and then traveled to Peoria, IL to visit with Great Grandpa Alberti and Aunt Laura. We visited the Peoria zoo and Spalshdown Waterpark. When that visit was over my parents drove Colin and I up to meet Eric. We shopped for fireworks then continued our trip to LaGrange. While in the Chicagoland area we went to some parks, saw a Chicago White Sox v. Baltimore Orioles game, met Ayla Gordon, and finished our trip with a trek into the city. While seeing Aunt Anna's house we went to the Lincoln Zoo and then out for dinner. After we returned from our Midwest Tour Colin took his second swim class, PreSchool 2. He has some skills he needs to develop, but he is doing fabulously for a 3 year old. We have also had some adventures meeting up with our friends for a trip to the water park and aquarium. This weekend we are headed to Virginia Beach where we will meet up with the Meyer Family for fun in the sun. I am going to try to do better by this blog. See you soon!
