Our trip to the Wilmont Races

On Saturday, June 21st, we finally made it up to the Wilmont Speedway. After two failed attempts last year, we finally got to take the kids to see the races. We had a blast. Dustin and Cousin Razz went with us. Caleb and Kylie had no issues with the noise! We watched the 410 Sprints, Modifieds, Strret Stocks, Mini Sprints, F4's . It was so much fun!

June 24th, 2008

Okay, so I have finally attempted to get my act together and get a blog put together. It will probably be really chopping and hopefully I'll be able to stay on top of updating it as often as possible. No Promises though! I just started a new job at Abbott. Caleb just finished up year one of preschool. One more year and he'll be in FULL DAY kindergarden AHHH! He'll be 4 next month. Kylie just turned 2 in April, and we've slowly moving into the potting training stage. VERY Slowly!! Some days she does SO GOOD! Then others, just said she doesn't want to . Very independant two year old! The pictures below are from the recent Carnival Days in the Harbor.

Here are some other miscelanioius picture of the kids from this year. Trip to the Township park.

The Winthrop Harbor Memorial Day Parade:

Back in April 2008, we took the kids on a little venture to Naples, Florida. Definitely not their first vacation. But one of the first that we took as just the four of us. We flew down to into Ft. Myers airport, rented a car and drove to Naples to stay at the condo. We got in late evening on Friday, so we just stopped and picked up some groceries and kinda laid low. Got the kids all settled in and ready for bed. Saturday we drove over the see Grandpa Nystrom in Bonita Springs. We hung out with him at his house for a while and the kids ran after the gecko's trying to catch them. No luck! We ventured down to Ft Myers beach, walked around, played in the sand. Sunday, Tiffany and Ryan joined us. Hung out at the condo, the kids swam in the pool. LOVED the water! Grandpa and Uncle Steve joined us, as well as Grandpa's friend Mary. We went out to dinner and a really nice Italian place. YUM! We also enjoyed lunch a couple time in Ft Myers at the good ol' Hooters. Caleb and Kylie were luck and got a few goodies from Aunt Tbird and Uncle Ryan. We tried to get to the beach each night for the sunset, well I did. Tim said if you've seen one, you've seen them all :O) But he still went each night.
