Wow where is the time going. I cannot believe that we are into July, we have done some fun thing as a family this summer, which mostly involves taking Darren to the park across the river. He loves playing in the sand box there, and swinging on the swings. 
Our most exciting news of the summer is that we are going to be and Aunt and Uncle! I am very much looking forward to having another little one in the family. The proud parents to be are Dan's brother and his wife. So congrats Brandon and Traci we love you and are so excited! 
Dan and I have had a lot of very relaxing weekends. We took a trip up to Eagle River where Dan's parents have a time share. This is where they took their family vacations every summer, so it was really cook to be able to go up there for the weekend. It rained A LOT but B and T had a lot of fun games and the WII so it was still a lot of fun. Dan has been working on a lot of side jobs this summer, so he has been working on the weekends a lot. As have I been working almost every Saturday. So my parents have been wonderful and taking Darren on the weekends for us so we can get some sleep, and get somethings done around the house. 
This is one of his projects the deck turned out just beautiful! The first is the before picture.
Next weekend we are looking forward to going to the dells with my brother and his wife. I haven't seen either one of them since we left for NY. I miss them a lot so it will be great to spend the weekend with them and have some fun too. But anyone have any suggestions for nap time at the Noah's Ark? I am just wondering how that is going to work. . .
