Summertime

We are enjoying spending time with family in our "summer home." Here is Max hanging out with Grandpa Don along with cousins, Harrison and Parker. So far, there's been lots of swimming, swinging and meals on the back deck.

Back Home Again ...

Max got his first taste of Indiana corn while visiting my parents, and he also helped out with Mee Maw's garden.

We Moved!

I am really behind on the blog, but we moved from Chicago to Bloomington, Ind., in early June! It has been a whirlwind coordinating all of the various legs of the move (Justin's dad also moved from Denver to Bloomington, and we are staying with him for the summer). But we are finally getting settled, and Max is enjoying his new digs.

Sight-Seeing in Chicago

We tried to make the most of our last week in Chicago, including a visit to the Lincoln Park Zoo and Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool. Justin really wanted to visit the Lily Pool, and I was not very excited about it. But it was beautiful, and we wish we would have discovered it sooner. The pond has a path around it, and there are tons of serene spots with visitors just passing the time enjoying nature and wildlife.
