We are back!

The Schnabels are back online! We lost our internet for a couple weeks and once we got it back then our computer crashed. But good news is we are back.

It has been a busy summer with lots of fun! Instead of the writing day by day stuff, I will just post pictures to explain the fun = )

Father's Day 2010
Helping daddy open his presents


Making ice cream in the maker Brian got for Father's Day. Will and I also made him a stepping stone but I guess we didn't get a picture of that....will need to take one and upload it in the future.


swimming in our "big" pool!


Eating the homemade ice cream



Swimming Lessons
We did parent/tot swimming lessons this year. Basically Will and I swam around most of the time but Will did learn to use his big arms, kick his feet and blow bubbles in the water. Will's friend Maci also took these classes so they both enjoyed the time swimming together.
Daddy came one night too!



Birthday Celebrations
At the end of June, we headed to Iowa to celebrate Claire's 3rd birthday and my dad's 60th. Claire had a pizza party at her house on Saturday and then Sunday, we enjoyed time with the whole family at my parent's house to celebrate my dad's birthday. As always it was a quick trip but it was great to see everyone and spend time with them. Sorry no pictures from dad's party and just 2 from Claire's!



July 4th
I don't have any pictures to share but Will and I went over to the Melvin's for a grill out to celebrate. Brian, unfortunately, had to work. The plan was to watch the fireworks when it got dark but it started raining and we were told they were canceled, so we just hung out for a bit and then headed home. On the way home, we saw fireworks!! Apparently they were not canceled, so Will and I sat in the car and enjoyed the show! Will liked the first couple but then was more excited that he got to sit in the front seat of the car. After the show, we headed home and went to sleep. Sorry there are no pictures!
I believe this is what Will got for his 4th of July gift (it's been awhile...I can't remember for sure!) It's aqua sand which is sand when it is dry but in the water, you can mold it. Its actually really neat and Will loved it!




Camping Trip
The second weekend in July, we packed everything up and headed to the campsite for the weekend. It was a great time. Will was super excited about his new sleeping bag and loved playing in the camper.

Making s'mores at the camp fire

Will only wanted to eat the chocolate!



Okay...that may have to be all the pictures for this post. I have a few things I need to get done before Will wakes up from his nap and playing on the internet is not one of them = ) I will try to post more later.
