County Fair

We got to take the kids to the County Fair and Oaks Park this summer so Cohen had his fair share of fun rides! He is getting brave and loving it all!

Fun at the Beach

We took a family trip out to Long Beach Washington and Astoria Oregon for our last big hurrah of summer before school starts up. It was a beautiful day to see goonies and build sandcastles!

Dinosaurs at the Zoo

We went through the Prehistoric Predators exhibit at one of our summer trips to the zoo. Cohen wasn't sure about the "spitting" dinosaurs (that sprayed water) and Griffin didn't like the one that growled in his face (thanks Daddy!).

The Oswald Cousins

Boating

We spent a lot of time boating out in Illinois and Wisconsin on our summer family vacation. We spent time with Donnie's mom, brother and family, and aunt and uncle. It was a fun trip! Griffin's first airplane ride and lots of brave firsts for Cohen (tubing, swimming in a lake on his own).

Legoland Chicago

We went to Legoland in Chicago where everything was made out of legos! We got to see figures, build things, go on rides, watch a 4D movie, see how legos are made in the factory, and of course buy some new legos! It as a definite highlight!

Camping Trip

Cohen had his first camping trip. Daddy and Cohen pitched a tent, built a fire, made smores, and slept under the stars (all in our very own backyard)!
