More sidewalk chalk

Art projects are still big. Natalie is learning to draw and share from Elliot.

This is Elliot's drawing of a turtle.

Venetian Gardens Corn Roast Pics

There's midwestern and then there's midwestern. Larry and Sue's subdivision had a block party/corn roast today. Gorgeous day after lots of heat rain and humidity.

There was a green jello salad with marshmallows.

The Fox River was overflowing its banks into the park a bit too which was exciting. The fast river flow kept the powerboaters and their noise away as well. Great news!

Summer in the City

One night recently the Navarros decided to pull out the TV and watch it in our front porch area. We got these pics of Elliot playing with the girls. There are few things more exciting than

(1) Staying up late
(2) With the Navarros
(3) Watching TV
(4) Outside

Big night for a boy.

Art Projects

Elliot is obsessed with drawing these days. He draws with sidewalk chalk on our front porch area and crayons too. The chalk drawings are "teachers." The crayon one is a bus complete with wheels and a driver.
