Ben's First Cubbie Game (VIDEO! PRESS "PLAY"!)

Gone Fishin'

Here are a few shots of Ben fishing!  He caught more fish than his grandpa and his dad combined.  He originally wanted to take the worms home as pets, but changed his mind when he learned the were going to help him catch the fish.

The Farm!

Here are some pictures of Ben, Phoebe, and they're favorite Chicago babysitter -- Emma!  They rode some horses, picked some veggies, and had an overall good time.

Deer Forest!

Okay, so all but one of these pictures are from Deer Forest in Michigan.  Which was not quite what I remembered.  But the kids had a good time, and we came back with all of our fingers.

The last photo is from the fountain by Paul and Mia's pool.  The kids had a great time there with their Chicago pals!

The Dunes!

Here are some photos of Ben and Phoebe's time at the beach...  Lots of "surfing", (yes, that's a kickboard), butterfly hunting, and general beach-time fun!
