more summer fun

Here are just a few more extra pictures of our super cute kids!

Mr. and Mrs. Krings!

My brother got married on July 23rd!  We are so happy for him and absolutely love Kelly!  It was a great weekend.

Rachel is walking




Rachel finally decided to walk on her own over 4th of July weekend, and has not stopped!!  She's getting really fast and loves following Luke around.  She is really good at sneaking away and getting into stuff she's not supposed to. :)  Life just got a lot more interesting!

Do we like Green Eggs and Ham??

Luke will eat green eggs and ham!  He will eat them at the table!




Rachel will NOT eat green eggs and ham.  She will NOT eat them in her chair, she will put them in her hair!





One of Luke's new favorite books is Green Eggs and Ham, which he requested for lunch today!

4th of July

We had a great 4th of July weekend!  We started the weekend off with a Chances R fried chicken picnic and movie night on Friday.  We watched Toy Story 3, which most of us loved!  Rachel had no interest in the movie, she just wanted to crawl around the couch and be where everyone else was. :)

Saturday was the perfect day for a BBQ!  We had the Brodine and Jakub families at our house.  The kids had a great time playing outside while the guys reminisced about the old college days.  Luke was disappointed that none of these engineers knew how to drive a train. :)

Sunday was a nice lazy morning at home.  After naps for everyone, we went to Grandma and Grandpa Holthe's house for supper.  We tried to light some of our own fireworks, but the kids didn't like it.  After supper, we came back to our house to watch the York fireworks show from our deck.  It was a beautiful night, with beautiful fireworks - and a delicious ice cream cake for dessert!

Monday was another busy day!  The girls checked out the craft show in Seward, where I found lots of goodies to decorate the house.  The guys golfed.  After that, we all grilled at Grandma and Grandpa's house again.  We ended our weekend with late naps and lounging around the house.  It was such a fun weekend!  We are not prepared for the week to start!  Luckily it's a short one. :)

Water fun!

Now that I am finally all caught up on posts of our busy lives, here are some pictures of our fun afternoon in our backyard!

Cutest ring bearer ever!!

Luke got to be ring bearer in my cousin, Megan's wedding on June 11.  He did a great job, and looked super cute in his little tux!  What a fun weekend!




The next day was Luke's 3rd birthday!  We celebrated with coffee cake for breakfast at Great Grandpa's house.  After that we stopped at the Henry Doorly Zoo for the afternoon.
