Hello everyone,

Here are the rest of the Bean birthday pictures!


Bean is getting ready to go!

There she goes!

J.A. with our newest granddaughter.

T.L. with the new baby.

Bug hanging from the bars.

Another pic of her on the bars.

Here she is on the tire swing.

Bug on the slide.

Bean swinging pretty high!

Bug went pretty high herself!

J.A. with the baby.

There she is up close!

And here she is in her car seat. She's getting so big and is very cute!


We had a great time together. The day was fun with Bean and the picnic with the whole family was great fun. J.A. and Bug prepared all the food for the picnic and it was yummy! The next birthday is T.L.'s but they will be at their family's cabin so I'm not sure when we will see them. Fess has a birthday the day after T.L. We will be seeing her next Thursday so I will have some more pictures to share then.

I hope you are enjoying the last of the summer and spending it with family and friends! Have a great weekend!

Shalom,

Robin

Hello everyone,

Here are the pictures I mentioned of Bean's 7th birthday. We went first of all to a county fair and saw some horse shows and then went to Canal Park in Duluth to one of her favorite places.


Bean is enjoying her hot pretzel snack while Grandma takes her picture with her phone.

Bean on the carousel with Grandpa.

Here she is getting all buckled in for the trampoline.

Getting ready to start jumping.

She really got high this time and people watching were amazed!

She's coming down the roller slide here.

I thought this was a cute picture of her pretty dress and the braid in her hair.

Can you see her feet coming?

There she is!

Jumping up and down!

Bean and Grandpa on the Tilt-A-Whirl!

Here she is on the Frog Hopper ride.

On the carousel by herself this time!

Riding on Rudolph!

She wanted to try the trampoline again. She was a little tired this time and couldn't quite make it as high as the first time.

We knew she had new teeth growing in, but we didn't know they would be orange!

A close up!
First big colored teeth and then a mustache! What will Mommy and Daddy think?!

More big teeth -- this time they're purple!


We had a great time. After the game place we spent some time shopping for her birthday presents. Then we met the rest of the family for a picnic in a park. It was lots of fun and I will share the rest of the pictures in a couple of days.

Enjoy the great weather we've been having!


Shalom,

Robin

Hello everyone,

After our trip to New York we had T and Fenori's children for 5 days while they celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary. Fenori surprised T with tickets to a Brewer's baseball game. It was their first trip to Miller Park. Then they spent a couple of days at Wisconsin Dells. We had a great time with the grandchildren!



Our pool is smaller than their pool at home, but it was just right for Fess to be in by herself!

Zoo liked it on some of the days, but not all.

Lili liked being able to get in without a ladder!

Deuce had fun in the pool, too!

Some of the days were really hot, so the pool was a real blessing.

Fess liked being able to stand up in this pool.

More pool fun!

Grandpa was a big help in the pool and I stayed out with the camera.

The girls love wearing Grandma's shoes.

They each picked their favorite pair.

Fess really liked her new flip flops, too.

I think she may be dancing, but she sure is cute!

Fess is really fun to take pictures of!

This was on a day when Deuce and Lili spent some time with some of their cousins and Fess and Zoo stayed with us.

Want some water?

They got a little cold in the water and came out to warm up!
What a cute smile!

Zoo likes getting up on the chair himself.

He was watching himself in the mirror here.
He likes the camera almost as much as his sisters do!


We had a great time, but only actually got the camera out a couple of times. Later that week we went to see T.L., J.A. and the girls. It was Bean's 7th birthday, so we stayed over night on Friday night and then spent the day with her on Saturday doing fun things. Later we met the family for a picnic before heading home. I will post those pictures in a few days!

Have a great week!


Shalom,

Robin
