Reinoehl Side

Jenny is in town this week with two of her kiddos...Lucas and Travis.  We had a pool party today at my parents so we could all be together while she's here.  It was so good to spend time with everyone!

Independence Day

Wednesday evening Ben and I went to downtown Elkhart to watch the fireworks show...I have to say, wasn't bad!  We have parked along the side of the road and sat in the back of the truck with chairs the past couple of years.

Last night we took some fireworks over to Tyler's house to have a show.  He had one last year and of course, he wanted to follow up with the tradition this year.  Caitlyn's parents and uncles made it over along with Trenton, Gabi and Ryan.  Needless to say, Lennox being older, she loved the fireworks!  The fountains and the simple snap fireworks were her favorites!  She even made it all night without falling asleep!  We roasted s'mores over the fire and watched the show in the front yard.  A good time with everyone!

Swimmers!

It finally got warm enough yesterday to take the kiddos swimming...the pool was a little chilly because it has been so rainy and not so warm, BUT Lennox put on her life vest AND got in the pool with her momma.  Madden is enjoying the pool more than last year as well.  I would say it was a success!  The icing on the cake was that their daddy got to join in the fun since he got off work a little early!  The last pic I got today from Caitlyn.  I can't get over Lennox's beautiful smile!  She may be getting used to little brother, Eli!

Weekend With Eli

Madden and Lennox went to visit T (Aunt Ashley) in Indianapolis leaving Tyler and Caitlyn with Eli.  We decided to give them a weekend "kid free" and we took Eli.  It gave us an opportunity to get to know this little fella.  He's such a sweetheart.  So tiny.  Of course, nana had to have a photo session :)  This boy is already a month old!
