Brookfield Zoo
I am finally posting pictures from our trip to Brookfield Zoo in Chicago. Three adults and 6 kids made for a fun trip. I think the kids had more fun running around together, but we did manage to see a few animals.

August Update
We had a very busy August!! Here are the highlights
Canoe and Camping trip- We went camping one last time, we were rained out the last two times we wanted to go camping. But this time it was worth the wait because the weather was perfect. We also were able to use the canoe we found on craigslist. The boys actually did a great job sitting still in the canoe.
Adams wedding was another highlight of August- Here is a picture courtesy of Anthony.
We went to the Madison Racetrack in Oregon (only minutes from the new house) For a friday night race. We were able to go down on the racetrack and meet the drivers and get autographs before the race.
We went to my parents block party too. My parents rented this cute little train for all the kids to ride on.

Crane Action!
The crane came on Monday and we went out to see it in action! The boys thought it was great and they were excited to see the "triangles" go up in the air. It was crazy to see the workers climbing around like monkeys on the house.
