Raging Waves Waterpark







Yesterday we were at the Raging Waves water park for 8 hours!!!!!! From open until close. We went with our homeschool friends as a last hurrah before school starts. The scariest ride was the Boomerang. The favorite ride was the twisted sister. Dasch had fun in the wave pool. We all got alittle crispy despite the multiple applications of sunscreen. We slept like rocks and look forward to doing it again next year:o)

Downtown Chicago!





























We had such a good time downtown. We went down there to see the air and water show practice. We hit the art institute first and followed that up with millenium park, Buckingham fountain, Navy Pier, a ferris wheel ride, a pirate show and the Lego store. And to top it all off we took Chicago city bus back to the train station. We walked about 5 miles and the kids did not want to leave. We will definately make this an annual outing.

DaschBoard







Yesterday...Dasch fell off the swing in the backyard onto a wagon. He came in crying and told me he had an "owie". I brushed it off telling him that it was ok. Then I saw the blood! I took all I had - to muster up courage to look for the cut. There it was! Off to the urgent care we went where he got 2 stitches. It took forever because he moved so much! I can't wait to take him back there to get them out:o(

VBS

3 Hours is way too long for Dasch at Bible school. I hope he does better today.

New Bacalar Pier & Sea Wall











We just got the pictures back from our new pier on Lake Bacalar. Bernadino did a good job. We are all excited to try it out in a couple of months.
