Silly Girl!

At some point while we were in Tennessee this summer, Brynne started making funny faces when I pull the camera out. I have NO idea where she picked this up, but it is too funny!

Munsinger Gardens

Munsinger Gardens is a beautiful garden here that is free and open to the public. It is right along the Mississippi River and it is mostly shaded by trees, so it has been the perfect spot for an afternoon out this summer. Here are a few pictures from our first trip there in July.

Labor Day weekend we invited our preacher Justin, his wife Amy, and their daughters Allyson and Lauren up to visit. We went to the gardens then had them over for dinner.

This is what happens when you try to get three silly girls to take a picture!

Amy and the girls, I could not believe I got a picture with everyone looking and almost smiling-ish :)

We came across some ducks... We heard a lot of quacking, but mostly from Brynne instead of the ducks, haha!

The girls posed really cute by this tree as we were getting ready to leave... By the time we got the cameras out this was all we got!

P9018126

And of course Brynne couldn't be left out!

We enjoy making trips to the gardens and having our friends here. Now that fall is almost here we plan to start making trips out to St. Joseph to see the leaves changing and visiting pumpkins patches and apple orchards!

Crack Kills...

Last week we were playing and Brynne kept pushing her diaper down in the back... I tried to tell her crack kills, but she didn't seem to mind, haha!

Then she was making all these crazy faces...

I like how blue her eyes are here!
P8097979

Brynne really knows how to accesorize... Maybe a little too much, ha!

Hopefully later in life she will learn that less is usually more :)
P8097995

P8097993

She was trying to get away from the camera, but I got her!
P8097991

I promise there is a diaper in there somewhere!

It may be a while before I update again because I can't find my camera battery charger and both batteries are completely dead!

New Toys

Shortly after we got back from TN, I bought Brynne a baby doll stroller and bathtub.

She liked showing off her brute strength!

P7137798

Apparently she thought she was the baby doll since she tossed her's aside! And notice she is washing her knee, haha!

P7137800


She must think it's quite a comfy seat...

P7137803

P7137805

She has finally realized the baby fits in the bathtub a little better than she does and will often give her baby a bath. She is also becoming quite fond of pushing the stroller ALL over the apartment, but she prefers to leave the baby behind!

Summertime!

An area in our town, called Lake George, has a weekly concert and festival on Wednesdays during the summer! A couple of weeks ago we decided to go check it out.

There is a playground, splash pad and all sorts of food vendors. The concert started a little too late for us, but we enjoyed walking around and seeing everything.

P7117776

Brynne is still not too sure about the splash pad! She seemed to love the idea of it, but wouldn't actually get close enough to get wet, haha!

P7117783

They had a nice little play area for the little kids, but I couldn't figure out how to work it! At least there was a little water left to splash in!

P7117787

On thing Brynne will never pass up is a swing! She loves it!!

P7117789

We grabbed some hamburgers and ice cream before heading home, Brynne loves hamburgers!

P7117790

Could she be any more relaxed?! Haha!

P7117793

It was definitely something fun and different for a weeknight! Maybe we can make it one more time before the end of the summer!
