We went to the Minnesota zoo today! It was so fun! We met up with a friend of mine and it was fun!

The giraffe was loving all the food people were feeding it!




We were at the farm part of the zoo. It was cool and fun!




There were 3 or 4 baby monkeys there! They were adorable!




So sweet!




The bears were so cute! Very playful!

Ready to watch some fireworks!  We stayed home and watched from our deck!  We saw so much!

It was a perfect night for fireworks!

Monsters University!

We took the kids to Monsters University!

It was a really cute movie!

You can see Alyssah's little head! LOL!

Alyssah's First Time at Camp!

Alyssah went to camp for the first time!  She loved it!!

During her performance!  She was so cute!

Alyssah and her counselor Alyssa!  She thought it was so awesome to have someone with the same name as her!

By the Camp of the Cross sign!  I have never done this before, I am glad I did!

This was taken off the website.  She is in the front row!

Alyssah and her other camper mates!

She had so much fun, and she can't wait to go back!

Fishing!

We finally got to take the boat out in June!  It was a nice fun day!

Alyssah and Josh!

Jake and Dad

Catching her fish!  Then about 10 minutes later, the fish came off.  She cried too.  Big brother Jake helped get another line up and ready for her, so now she can fish with a real pole!

Jake, he is serious when it comes to fishing!

Josh is too!

This girl is all about comfort! It was hot, so she put her feet in the water!
