Summer Continued

I'm back to upload more photos from our summer.

Omaha's Children Museum
Over my birthday weekend, Will and I took a trip up to Omaha to meet my mom. We spent a few hours at the museum and then went to eat at Spaghetti Works. Will had a great time at the museum and of course we loved seeing Grandma!!








Grandma Barb got Will these fun trucks, which he played with all night when we got back from Omaha.





Omaha Zoo
The following week, Brian, Will and I drove back to Omaha to meet Brian's parents. Brian sold his big truck to a friend and is purchasing his dad's smaller truck, which will help a ton financially. We met Earl and Linette for lunch and had a great visit. Since we were in Omaha, we decided to make a trip to the zoo. Again...it was a great time! Will loved seeing his grandparents and all the animals at the zoo.











Grandma and Grandpa gave Will money to buy something fun at the zoo. He picked out this truck with a trailer and jet skis. It was cute watching him in the store deciding just what to get. He is getting so big!!


Here's the new truck! Of course, Brian had to clean it as soon as we got home and of course, Will had to help = )




Royals Game and Tie Dyed Shirt
We went to a Royal's game with some friends and had a great time tailgating before hand. The story behind the tie dyed shirt: That week was "art week" at daycare and Will made the shirt. He was very proud of himself and loves this shirt. He wanted to wear it to the game and when we got home, he wouldn't take it off! So he ended up wearing it to bed as well. He also wanted to wear it again the next day but I put my foot down = ) It is pretty cute though!

Just being silly!






Tennis Matches!
Bayne and Brook were in KC playing in a tennis match and Will and I got to go watch them play. We also hung out at their hotel room the night before so Will could do a little swimming with the kids. Their cousin Dawson was also along. The three of them are getting so big! I used to babysit them when they were around the age 3 and 4...crazy to see them now! It was great to see them and Chad and Marcy! We definitely need to make sure we do it more often!!




Weekend Trip to Iowa
This past weekend Will and I took a trip to Iowa to see family. We spent time at the Lakes, which consisted of Arnold's Park, boating, swimming, shopping, Bob's hot dogs, and of course lots of playing with Ella and Claire. Will had a great time playing at grandma and papa's house too!!

Ella, the little fish! She loves the water and is not at all afraid to jump right in.


Jami made a friend for life when she let Will drive the boat! He was so excited about doing this and honking the horn. He told Brian all about it that night on the phone = )


Arnold's Park fun









Just getting done swimming at the Spencer pool.


Okay....I think I am up to date except for the pictures from the Royal's game we went to last night, but I don't have those uploaded to the computer yet. So that will have to be another night. Sorry for the lengthy post. Hopefully I can stay with the blogging again so that I don't have to post all at once!
