Phone dump

Great news!  I have joined the 21st century and finally have an iPhone.  The upside is that I take a million pictures a day of our adventures because I don't have the problem of forgetting the big camera or having the battery charged.  The downside is that I take a million pictures a day of our adventures and then they get piled up on my phone and I forget that I wanted to share some of them.  Soooo....here are a few of the great pictures from my phone over the last month.  

Anna often asks to have her picture taken.  

How can you not want a picture of this girl with her mismatched PJ's, pup-pup and rain boots?  

Daddy's birthday was at the beginning of the month and he got a "DQ" ice cream machine.  This is the first use, caught on camera!

Being Minnesota residents for almost 10 years, you would think we would have already had a few Juicy Lucy's under our belts....but alas, we had not, until Brian's birthday.  We hit up the 5-8 club and enjoyed our firsts!  YUM.  

Anna and Daddy waiting for their sandwiches.  

Mommy and Claire.  She always looks like she's annoyed that we are trying to get a picture together.  

Juicy Lucy.  Mmmm.

Claire loves to help in the kitchen, but she's the queen of sampling.  She begs for the spatula or beaters whenever we are mixing something....she usually doesn't have the patience to wait until we are done mixing before the begging begins.  She also likes to help herself to anything that is within reach.  Here she got caught stealing popcorn from the pans before they were sprinkled with pizza topping goodness.  

Claire is all about safety first.  She loves to wear her helmet, even when she's not biking.  She wears it to clean...

She wears it to walk....

She wears it to eat her lunch.  

Saturday night was a great night for a fire, so we had some neighbors over and enjoyed our first s'mores of the season.  Claire didn't like the cracker and marshmallow getting in the way of eating the chocolate.  

There you go...phone dump #1.  This may be a regular occurance...but hopefully I can keep up with the pictures better this summer.
