Chicago July

July was good to us here in Chicago.

When we were locked out of Seminary....

We rock our bathing suit most days. Mom's too lazy to care

 

I'm not sure if this is sad or just cute. Kelsey often runs to the gate and yells "Daddy where are you?" We all get along but Kelsey and Ethan are like best friends. There is no one she's rather be with than Daddy. Recently she has started calling him Ethan or Dad. Its awesome.

A day when the swimming suit was justified..

The conveyor belt slide in Oak Park

 

Another kiddism that grosses me out. Kelsey loves to lay in the grass at the park. It would be cute if it were actually grass but it is in fact the weeds around the park full of trash and who knows what. I make sure to help her find a "clean" spot but it still grosses me out. I mean its not like the slides are clean but still.

It was raining and Kelsey set up her own picnic. I love this even more because we didn't help her at all. She did this all by her self.

 

The last couple of Friday date nights have been low key and delicious. One Friday we got Eli's cheesecake and watched a movie. 

Another Friday we ORDERED pizza!! Would you believe me if I said I can remember one time in my life where pizza was delivered to my house. I kind of forget its an option.

 

And another Saturday we got West towns famous Hoosier Mama Pie. 

Sunday fort fun

 

A newly discovered trick. Its amazing what you can do on a walk when ever body on the street has a front fence.

After some World Cup game we went the park to play soccer. We don't know where or when Kelsey learned how to kick but she's getting pretty good at it. My favorite part is still when she tries to pick it up with her hands but kicks it instead. She will do this like 4 times in a row before she figures it out. Its hilarious.

And last but not least, who said Zion was only in Utah?!
