Hanging out with Justin, Laura and Dylan

On Saturday, July 28th we left the cities and arrived at Justin and Laura's house mid afternoon.  The kids were beyond excited when we pulled in to the driveway. I think Justin was a little excited for us to get there too as he called at least 5 times between the Wisconsin/Illinois boarder and when we pulled into their driveway.  He reminds me of dad!  Once we got settled we  had some dinner and then headed to a nearby park.  It was a nice Saturday evening to get out and walk after being stuck in the car all day.  The kids ran around and burned off some energy and had a blast.  On our way back home from the park we decided to walk over to an ice cream shop just down the road from Justin and Laura's.  The ice cream was to die for!  I'm glad we walked there!!  Once we finished our ice cream we headed back to Justin and Laura's to unwind.  It had been a long day so we turned in a little early.  Jacob, Laura and Justin had to get a game of Mexican dominos in before calling it a night. 

 

On Sunday, Justin took us to a nearby mall to do a little shopping.  The weather was cloudy and rainy so it was a good day to spend inside.  Sunday night Justin cooked some hamburgers and brats on the grill.  Laura's dad, Ron, joined us for dinner.  Justin dug out the bean bag toss game and Lane and Justin threw some bags before it got too dark.  MaKena was outside helping daddy throw bags.  We headed to bed early as we were planning on heading into the city on Monday.

Mr. Dylan

Love, love, love this picture.  Laura was having some fun at the park!!  This picture makes me giggle!

MaKena loved getting up in the morning and playing with Dylan.

I think Dylan liked MaKena too.  Look at his cute smile!

I love this picture.  So cute.  MaKena would sit and talk to Dylan and play with him.  It was adorable.

One happy little boy!
