Chicago and Charlotte July 2006

We had a wonderful time back at home and we were glad to see our families and friends. There were some friends who we didn't get to see but hope that we will get to see you next time we are home again.



Ah, I'm glad to be back home!


We couldn't get them together for a picture at PicturePeople, but they were able to sit for us at home.



It was great seeing Cesca, Isabella, and Luca!

Dressing up is so fun!!
Do I look cool or what?

We went to McDonald's when Ken was at the dentist and Juliette likes chicken nuggets. Juliette enjoyed spending the time with Helen, but she really liked playing with the snow village!


Thanks Bob, Steve and Diane for coming out to see us.
Juliette is showing off to Karen her sunglasses.

Bye, bye Brookfield Zoo.

We had to get a picture, too.
