WOW ITS BEEN A LONG TIME!!!!

I know that it has been forever since I have posted anything - Almost 6 months. Needless to say we have been very busy so we'll just get everyone caught up-to-date with a briefing of the past month.

At the end of July we had a Feltch ( Anne's Mom's Family) Reunion in Chicago, which was fortunate for us becuase if we couldn't have driven there we probably would not have been able to go. We had a lot of fun getting together with my Mom's sisters and their families. We spent most of our time at my parents house hanging out, playing games, and making Tongan food. One of the days we headed down to downtown Chicago and took a boat tour around the lake and river. It was really fun and interesting. We miss all the family already.

In August, Danny and I went with my family up to Lake Michigan. We rented a little house and sat on the beach for a whole week. It was the perfect vacation. Danny loved to play all over in the sand and get pulled around on the boogie board - mostly only because he always saw the kids playing with it.

About half way through the week Danny started screaming at everyone for everthing. I figured it was becuase he was missing his dad so much. Needless to say my parents were rethinking the idea of inviting us to go on their vacation with them.

Our Weekend With the Eagers (and other friends)

In the middle of September we had the privelegde of having my best friend and her husband come and visit us. Since they were coming into town we gathered up some other long lost friends who live in the area and hung out. We got to go down to Nauvoo (without Danny) and go to the temple. It was so much fun to drive all over with them and hope they can come visit again.

Fun with the Kidney Bean

On top of the world - or at least the Hancock Building

Our New Little Project!

This is a little 67 bug that has been in my family for years. It was passed around the family and I got to drive it during high school. Needless to say it has been through a little rought patch, but Charlie and I have decided to take on the project and rebuild it ourselves. We have moved it over to our house and are slowly going to make it wonderful as money and time permits.

The Pumpkin Patch

Apparently when you want a pumpkin in the Midwest you have to go to the pumpkin patch and pick your own. We took Danny over to one and had fun riding the little carvinal rides, playing games and petting the animals.
