Starved Rock

Posted April 12, 2010 by admin

We all wanted to get away for a day or two so we decided on Starved Rock in southern Illinois. Uncle Russ, Aunt Eileen and Aunt JJ all occompanied us in Mom’s van down for the trip. Luckily our friends Perry and Sarah had a baby backpack for Lalie to use. We spent the night in the hotel and went hiking the whole next day. Eddie had a blast and kept asking to see more “Nature” while Lalie was more than content just being carried around and sleeping the day away. Still one of our best memories as a family.

April Fools J

This still brings tears of laughter to our eyes. It’s a little long of a video but to me it’s worth it.

Sarah and I stealthily switched out JJ’s new phone for my old work phone. She had been waiting a while for her new phone and it happened to come on April 1st. We did the best resealing job imaginable as nothing was suspected right away. Although Sarah bursting out into laughter at the site of JJ’s face didn’t help, but we tried to keep it cool.

Eddie Meets Lalie

Sarah and Eddie had talked of naming the new little girl Olivia. As that did not happen and her name was Eulalie we introduced her to Eddie as Lalie. This is the first time they met and that boy loved meeting her. You can tell he waited a long time to see her face.

Eddie had a ball dancing to the 80’s song “Eileen”. That whole night he was in overdrive.

We all went down with Eileen, Russ and Mom to Missouri to help pack Eileen for transit. Eddie was really young here as it was May of ’06. We went to the Bass Pro Shop and had fun playing soccer with that little boy.
