We started the month with a fun weekend with the Stevens family. Phil's parents and Natalie came down for our annual Lagoon trip, and we enjoyed a beautiful hike in the rain with them at Maple Lake. We ate our picnic in the car afterwards since it started to pour. Natalie looks cute in just about anything, but this poncho is especially cute!
We enjoyed our time at Lagoon, especially the water. It is a fun tradition that the boys really look forward to each year.
Jacob and I got to spend a day and Cub Camp, then Phil went up the next day. You're not a real boy mom until you've gone to cub camp! Phew, glad to have that out of the way. I'm happy to report it wasn't as bad as I expected!!
Phil and I also became proud grandparents this month. Robins. We found this nest in our backyard and were mesmerized as we watched nature take its course. From tiny blue eggs to hatching and then sadly we missed them leave their nest this weekend. I was very impressed with the effort mama and papa bird put in to taking care of those babies. Four hungry mouths to feed non-stop. I'm glad I did mine one at a time!
Phil and I were able to have a fun little trip to Chicago. He had to go for business and they invited the spouses to tag along. We got to go see Doc Severinsen (trumpet player) play in the park, went to the Art Institute, went on the architectural boat cruise and ran along the water front. He has some great people in his profession and it was good to meet them and their spouses. We even had a Photo Scavenger hunt in the Taste of Chicago (loved the stuffed crust pizza!) Very fun. And now I'm patiently waiting for my boys to come home. I'm ready to be a mom again (remind me I said this in a few hours!) It's been a fun June!
