Chicago Trip July 2011

The kids and I took a trip up to Chicago at the end of July and had a great time! We started off visiting Erin, Cole, Kendall and the Cowan family and had an AMAZING time! I was so nice to spend some quality time with my BFF and I miss her a ton!
After the visit with Erin, we made our way to Ben and Julia's to spend some time with Griffin AND our adorable new nephew/cousin Duncan. We had a wonderful time and I hope my visit was helpful to the new family!
Sorry the pictures are in a weird order...I had a little trouble downloading (what's new! :)).
Connor making his own pizza at lunch with Auntie Honey. Such a cute idea and he LOVED it!
After lunch, Connor was able to ride in Auntie Honey's cool "fast" car as he calls it when we went out for ice cream. He is still talking about his ride with Auntie Honey!
Don't they look cool! :)

Unfortunately the only picture I took from our time with Erin, Kendall and Cole. The kids watching a movie/having a sleep over together. TOO CUTE! :)

Michigan 2011 - Murphy Family Vacation

We just got back from a WONDERFUL week in Benton Harbor/St. Joe's Michigan on the Murphy Family vacation. It was a blast with great company, wonderful food, fun times with the kids and a never ending supply of Corona Lights! :)

All 5 grandchildren - Connor (3.5), Erin (9 months), Mae (1.5), Leah (11 months) and Cole (4.5)
Couldn't decide which one I liked better...I think maybe this one
And, with the grandparents...poor Leah was SO over pictures by this point!
