Summer 2008

These are a variety of pictures from the summer.  We enjoyed a day at a bowling alley on July 4 followed by the downtown fireworks.  Our niece, Marin, celebrated her 6th birthday the following day.  Grandma Trish and Grandpa Dave enjoyed a brief visit from Minot in late July.  We attended the Indiana State Fair.  Our neighbors coordinated a block party to celebrate Back-to-School

Kids were asked to do a skit and our boys decided to do a little Alvin and the Chipmunks (they really do resemble, Alvin, Simon, and Theodore)
 

We definitely have a lot of kids on our block!  Most of them are boys.  This picture only has 4 girls!
