I guess we've been MIA from the blogging world for a while. Not quite a year though. I thought I'd share this video of Lou and Dan. This is what our evenings (and our days are filled with). So fun and happy! Of course I didn't have the camera recording the best part. Louis and Dan kept galloping past the doorway and it was pretty funny to watch them together. I only posted all of these for the sake of the grandparents. :) Time to improve my awesome video skills...

 Dan and I are amazed at how much Lou grows up every day. Today he was singing and I heard the words "Old McDonald"! The tune was something else, and I didn't understand any other words but it was really adorable. He hasn't branched out from an occasional "e-i-e-i-o" until today.

It's August Already??

Louis gives really big gooey kisses now! 

W had some Friday night fun with dinner and smore's
So grateful for good friends!!


Louis had a bite of his first smore!!

He never sits still :)



Church gets long sometimes, even though we only have 2 hours...snuggle/nap time with dad of course turns into wiggle time



Field of Dreams

We took a little Saturday road trip
and found a lovely place in Iowa called Dyersville.
In case you can't tell by how many pics we took... WE HAD A GREAT TIME!!!
















It was freezing that day,
we stayed bundled up

Louis and his daddy!
























We crossed the Mississippi River



We were excited to see an  A&W  and stopped for a treat


Play Ball!

We went to Milwaukee and saw the Brewer's Major League baseball game!!





















Guy and Mary Porth arranged everything for us!
They used to live in Milwaukee

















We ate lunch here, and it was super tasty!
I had a Sprecher's Root Beer-irresistable

The Porth's drove us by the church building
where they served in a city branch
It has a lot of history and really cool!
