Well, we've had quite the exciting end of July/beginning of August. And that's never good. I've realized that not having a drama filled life is really the way to go! It started back in June when my grandpa passed away. He had been living down in NC at a retirement home, and hadn't lived in his house for about a year. My grandma passed away about 10 years ago, and the house really hadn't changed much in that time - probably had a bit more stuff added to it. My dad is the closest sibling, so he headed down the end of July to start going thru the house, getting it cleaned up/out and ready to sell. It was his 60th birthday on July 25th, and we weren't going to let him get out of celebrating that special day! So Mom, me, Calvin, Kailee and Jocelyn all headed down as well to assist in the cleanup efforts and celebrate his birthday. (More to come in a later post)
Jocelyn and I went first, and on the way down stopped in to see our good friends Aubrey and Tony and their 3 adorable kids. We hadn't gotten together since Jocey was just a few weeks old, so it was long overdue. We had a blast hanging out, playing and going to the children's museum. You know you have good friends when you haven't seen each other in that long and you pick up like you just saw each other yesterday! Here are some pictures from the children's museum in Rockford - what a cool place!

Her favorite place to play was the house area
She worked so hard making this pizza - then when she tried to put it in the oven it spilled everywhere. :)
She was quite upset some other kid was pushing around the baby stroller she had been using like 30 minutes prior. We really need to work on sharing!
All is well again with the world
