Summer's Last Big Hoorah!

We've had a few more great adventures this summer. It's sad to see the days dwindling down to the start of the school year. Trevor and I went on a fun trip to the zoo with my friend Melissa and her son AJ. AJ is only 10 days younger than Trevor. They had a blast. Trevor's favorite part was the sprinklers outside of the big bear exhibit. He played and squealed! It was good I had an extra change of clothes!

We made a five day trip up to Lutsen this past week. We had a great time visiting with Boppa Chuck and Mimi Anne. We even got to see Aaron's Uncle John and Aunt Pam a few times. We hiked by the Cascade River and the Temperance River. We went to Artist Point in Grand Marais and we got to see a big ship come in under the aerial bridge in Duluth. We also watched a fair amount of the Olympics - mostly swimming and gymnastics late at night. It was a great trip and we're looking forward to our next visit in the fall. Big hats off to my friend Jenn and her husband Stacy...Milo kept them (and their two dogs) on their toes the whole five days. Apparently he didn't settle down enough to lay down for three days!!! He's done a lot of sleeping since to catch up.

When we returned Ben stopped by and visited with Trevor and Milo and then went on a ride along with Aaron. It was great to see Ben again and Trevor (and Milo) had a lot of fun playing with him.
