Summer fun

 Silver Dollar City- we left Cole with Shannon's parents and headed out early.  AFter a quick stop in Springfield we arrived at silver dollar city.  It was the first time we had been there since having kids.  We did the cave first and then lunch.  After that it was to the rides.  The kids did great and we had such a fun day.  Chase did have to nap on my lap for awhile in the afternoon.  Callie rode all the rollercoasters with Shannon and LOVED them all.  We stayed until close at 7PM, ate and changed at a mcdonalds on the strip and then headed home.  It was a long day and we were exhausted but it was so much fun.  We are all ready to go back!

I can't believe I didn't get any pics from the 6 weeks of swim lessons at the Y.  Callie and Chase both loved it and did so well!

Mini Golf on Shannon's birthday after eating at Chili's.  The kids loved having them sing happy birthday to him.  Cole clapped forever afterwards - singing, clapping, and ice cream - he was one happy kid!


Despicable Me II Movie with Mommy.  I can't remember Chase going to a movie before and it had been a long time for Callie and I.  Cole stayed home with Daddy.  The kids both loved it.

Swimming at family night at the Frontenac Pool.  It was not busy at all.  All five of us for two hours.  Fun!  We had not gone to a pool together except for the Roberts house a couple times.

Bowling with Daddy.   Callie and Chase went twice this summer with Daddy while Cole stayed home with mommy.  They loved it!

Smurfs 2 Movie with Mommy.  Chase got more restless at the end but still did fine and Callie LOVE it and is still quoting it.

 
No pics of most of this so here are some random ones:

Read to head out to SDC.

  Just cute Cole:

 This is the hair you wake up with when you have a rough teething night:

 

He kept walking around with the hard hat covering his eyes but when we tried to get a picture we weren't too successful!

 

They wanted their pic taken too:
