Summer activities...a photo journal

This summer has been full of trips and major events in our lives. It all started in May/early June with a trip to my parent's place in PA.

Then, still in June we hopped on another plane to Chicago for Mark's graduation from Kellogg. Can we get a big "YAH HOOO!!"

While we were in the Chicago area, we went back to our church there and had Leo dedicated to the Lord in front of family and friends.

We were home for the 4th of July and met up with some friends to view a parade that day.

Just after the 4th we headed up to Boston to show off our little guy to his Auntie Laura, Great Grandma D.D. and Great Aunt Dona (and some dear friends too).

Once we finally got home we took some time to explore our own state and went to a nearby lake to have a picnic lunch and walk around. I definitely can say that it has been a wonderful summer so far, but I am glad to be home.

Braves

It was a hot, sticky day at the Atlanta Braves game. Thankfully Mark had tickets that got us into an air conditioned room with a great view of the field. At the top of the stadium they have a fun area for kids to play. It was fun to see Carmella run the bases.

[Carmella wanted to catch a ball. She kept reaching out her hands and stood at the fence for a really long time. She said: "I have to catch a ball first before we go."]
