Our rainy vacation and 4th of July in Illinois!

The girls were helping mormor (grandma) hand out water. But they did spill - so they had to help clean up.
Elizabeth helping.

Anna helping.


Good helpers need a break.


Lined up to see the 4th of July parade in the rain.



The firetruck from Somonauk (parade was in Sandwich).
The "Blue Stockings" A baseball team that plays the old style of baseball. The guy in the front is my cousin Brad.
"President Abe"


You can't have a parade in Sandwich without John Deer tractors.
Anna thinking" They are trowing candy - I better pick it up"
Elizabeth joined in.
Having fun in the pool with Uncle Bubba. It was raining the whole time we were in the pool on the 4th. But the pool water was warmer then the rain water.

Uncle Bubba taking a break from all the kids to eat and get more energy.


The girls fell asleep before they even layed down. They were tierd after a day of parade, food, fun and pool...





The next day we went back to Uncle Bubba and Aunt Linda to use the pool. We were not the only one that visited. We all had a great time and stayed in the pool for two hours.

The cow jumped over the......

Yesterday the girls and I desided to go to Lewis (petting) farm, but they were closing in about 10 minuts so I drove down the road and found Country Dairy. It is a local dary farm that has grassing cows, an ice cream/sandwich shop. We played at the playground, had ice cream and looked at the cows. We had a great time!

ANNA - my Holly Hobby!

New Mikes - Bikes!


For the girls birthday we got them "mikes" - bikes. Both the girls had a hard time with the different between uncle Mike and bike. So every time they wanted to play on the bikes - they would say MIKE. I would tell them that Uncle Mike is in Norway but that they could play with their bikes.
