Henry's 11th Birthday July 25, 2018

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HENRY!!

 Henry would love to have a dog of his own, but until then he has done lots of dog sitting in his neighborhood and our dog, Scout, loves it when he is here with us.

 Christy is a special mom who is always ready to do fun things with her family. Pippin has been in the family for about 12 years and hopefully has a few more to go!

 Henry loves baseball. He has been to the Chicago Cubs camp and the White Sox camp. He plays pitcher or catcher most of the time and is on a travelling team in the Glen Ellyn area.

 Camp at Honey Rock

                    OUR SON, NATHANAEL, LOVES HIS BOYS

 SO MANY HAPPY FAMILY TIMES TOGETHER. 

Big brother, George!

 BOY SCOUTS

MICHIGAN

A Spring Visit

Lena came up for a long weekend with the boys...Samuel, Ezra and Benjamin

The day they arrived it was really hot.

 So we got some play time in and then headed over to Portage Point to climb Angel Slide.

 The boys wanted to climb up a few times and then the fun is running 

down

 as fast

 as you 

can. 

Which is fun when you are a little guy, however,

 I chose to stay at the bottom of the sand hill and take some photos!

 AT THE TOP

 Then over to Lake Michigan, which was still around 40* so we only got our feet wet!

 The next day turned rainy and cold. 

So, out came the sweatshirts and over to the park and then to Pierport to play in the sand.

The boys wanted cherry hamburgers for lunch.

 That meant going over to The Cherry Hut in Beulah! 

The boys took over the guest bedroom which is rather girlish.

 Ha ha. 

Not when any of the grandsons visit.

BOYS ARE FUN
