New camera... new pictures....

Mario bought me a new camera for my birthday in May (SOO needed as our other camera would turn itself off the first three times you turned it on, which meant we missed a lot of great shots). Luckily, we've had many great things to take pictures of since then to practice using the new camera.

Above Audrey had her Kiddie College Academy graduation. What did she graduate from? Nothing... but she has been at the same daycare since she was 3 months old, and same with several members of her class. Many of them are off for the summer as their parents are teachers, and in fall, they begin a new journey by starting a formal 4K program, which will be a half day. Luckily her daycare offers the 4K program put on through the school and she will be able to attend that program and then do the other half day there as well. We've been soo happy with them - their staff, the development and the comfort in knowing our child is well taken care of....such a relief for working parents.

On Memorial Day weekend, Mario had several guide trips so I took Audrey up to my dad's cottage, where Ben and his girlfriend, Lynn were also. We had such a great time - Audrey loved the campfire and going down to the land to put her feet in the lake.



A highlight of the summer was my sister, Erin & her husband Ryan having their second child - a healthy and very adorable little boy, Wyatt on June 1st, 2012. Our entire family is in love with Owen, their two year old, and can't wait to spend more time with little Wyatt, and see his personality develop as well.
Below is Mario (proud Uncle) holding one day old Wyatt.

...and an up-close shot of my new little nephew.

Audrey LOVED holding Wyatt. I think she would've held him the entire time if we let her.

Here's a picture Erin shared with me once they got home of big brother, Owen, and Wyatt in their matching tie shirts I made for them. What cute little boys.

We attended the Brown County Breakfast on the Farm again this year - after enjoying last year's so much. This year, the Posley family joined us: Tony, Kristen and their two year old daughter, Harper.

This year, Audrey was not shy about wanting to ride on the tractors.
She got her face painted which she was soo proud of and loved.

and she got to pet this little calf.

We had a great time there, but there were THOUSANDS of people and lines were extremely long. We were thankful to get out fishing for a few hours after this to enjoy the serenity of the water.  Audrey caught 13 fish that afternoon and was reeling them in all by herself.
