Zoeyanne and Riley are the best of friends. Zoeyanne looks forward to picking up Riley from school and from there they spend the afternoon in a land of make believe. It’s as if they are making up scenes for a play, they dress up in costume and run around the house. They both spend much of their time doing art. Riley calls this “arting.” The longer the days together, the more hysterical fits and blood curdling screams you may hear coming from our house. Summer should be interesting.

Nathaniel received his first haircut on Easter. Yes his long locks are adorable but he could no longer see and we were mistaking him for my mom’s shaggy dog old english sheep dog. He is still adorable.

In May Laura, Zoeyanne and Nathaniel flew to Vegas to visit with Laura’s parents and to attend friends Avery and Steve’s wedding. Laura’s mom and Dad spent a whole special day with just Zoeyanne

Dan participated in Reno’s Run-a-muck, running a 2 mile relay race through the mud carrying a bar of soap passed to him by team mate Kurt von dem Bussche.

The next day he ran the Moms on the Run 5k along side Laura while pushing the kids in strollers.

We recently got a new tag-along for Riley and a bike trailer for Zoeyanne and Nathaniel. We’re hoping to spend much of our summer out biking. We’ve already done the Truckee River up by North Shore and had a blast!

Nicole, Laura’s 15 year old niece came to visit with a friend in June. What an educational experience it is to have two teenagers in the house for a week!
