Time to catch up

We've had a very busy June. Being busy is good, right? We went to IL for the Bacon Family Reunion where we got to see and meet members of Mike's family. It was Libby's first car trip and she did really well. Luke and Abby would even fall asleep in the car which was nice as well. A car with 3 sleeping children is a wonderful thing! After a full few days in IL, we took off for MO. We stayed just outside of St. Louis. We visited the Arch which was pretty cool (we went to the top) and the next day we went to the zoo. The zoo is ranked #1 by Parenting magazine. We got to see a lot of cool animals and each of us had our favorites. But the zoo is kinda like Thanksgiving dinner. The first part is fine but after awhile, you just wish you hadn't. :)

So we got back from our trip and had some people over that Saturday for dinner. Monday started a week of VBS which was fun but took up our mornings. On Thursday my brother Michael, his wife and two adorable kids came for the weekend. We took in the Science Station (word to the wise, it really needs some sprucing) and a parade and a Fairytale Festival. We ate good, even making s'mores one of the evenings. It was so nice to have them here!

If I included all the pics, it would take forever to download so the pictures here are just a sampling.
