Where has the summer gone? I guess we have been so busy that it has gone by all too fast. I really hope that the school year goes by this fast so we can have another summer again, soon! Or, maybe we will just move some place warm so we can always be entertaining Lauryn outside. She is at the point where she can throw a trantrum if she looks outside and we don't take her out there. We might just have to put black paper on all our windows and creep all the neighbors out.
Since the last post, hmmm...what have we been doing? We had a family reunion (yes, on one of the 95 degree & humid days) for the Nagel's, Eric's grandma's family. While in Luverne, we contiued to have the debate of John Deere vs Case, and the Gruis vs McMahan battle might just have to keep 1-uping each other. It was Eric's birthday and our 6th Anniversary. We made it to a 12:10 Twins game (Eric's wish) without Lauryn, on the "feels like 117 degrees" day. Grandma & Grandpa McMahan came up for 3 days and 3 nights to watch Lauryn while Eric and I got away to the North Shore. Lauryn was all too entertained by Grandma & Grandpa, and I am sure very spoiled. We've had numerous trips to the pool, beach, arboretum, park, and back-yard misquito fest. We hosted National Night Out in our Neighborhood last night - it was a blast! How fun to have the street blocked off and let the kids run wild! The biggest hit was the "car wash"... a sprinkler made of PVC pipe and made into a 20'x5' water toy. I think we might have to give some money to the neighbors for their water bill...they were gone and we used their hose! Their kids said it was OK! We are off to great-grandma McMahan't 90th birthday this weekend, and more fun in the sun next week for sure!
