Our Family in Our Living Room

Hiking at a State Park

We have so much fun together. Whether it's going to a fair, going on vacation, or just watching television together, we love being together. We all are truly best friends.

Petting a Pig

Every summer brings about ten local fairs, carnivals and festivals, which we enjoy. Lilli loves to see all of the farm animals at the fairs, and to ride all of the kiddie rides. She especially loves to see the little piglets and the moonwalk rides to jump around with all of the kids. We also visit the town pool about 20 to 30 times over the summer, where we splash around in the kiddie and baby pools and spend a 1ittle time in the deeper water teaching Lilli how to swim. The larger of the community playgrounds and parks is in the same complex with the pool, and we usually go there for some fun playing a couple times a week. We often follow this with an ice cream at a nearby roadside stand. Our backyard also is already sort of a "playground," with a sandbox, slide and swing. We also have a bocce court and especially enjoy having a good game with family and friends.

We usually take three vacations a year. This year we rented a beach house in North Carolina with Carl's mother, brother and his family. We had a wonderful time, and Lilli loved playing with her cousins for a whole week. Other vacations we would like to have in the coming years include Hungary to see relatives and some other European destinations and U.S. national parks.

We are always busy with something fun and planning the next activities, and are definitely not "couch potatoes." We look forward to adding our future little companion in the adventures soon.
