Despite the miserable midwest humidity, we have been managing to walk a little more than normal. So. Fecking. Sweaty. We took a short walk to the library tonight. The kids did a lot of bike riding again today. I can’t wait to post the images I took of them riding bikes. Jonas was smiling ear to ear.

One thing I don’t miss from Granite City is that we don’t like by any large trees. Normally I like trees, but here there are cicadas that are SO loud and annoying. I know some people like the sounds they make, but I can’t stand it.

I saw this commercial on TV today. LOL… Oh noez.. don’t tax SODA!!! I love that they have a picture perfect family camping and they have the soda sitting on the table, as if to say-camping is not camping with out my soda i.v. I also love how they call it "food" um, yeaaaah.
