Milwaukee!

We used the rest of our frequent flyer miles to visit John and Karisa in Milwaukee. We happened to be there for Benson's birthday, John's birthday, Palm Sunday, and Earth Day, so there was a lot of celebrating to do.
One of Benson's rewards for turning three was being allowed to climb up to the top bunk of his bunk bed, which he did very deliberately on the morning of his birthday. Yay, Benson!


We found Chase napping with this birthday hat in Benson's room. I think he felt a little left out of the birthday stuff.

It wasn't exactly swimsuit season in Milwaukee, but we made up for it by going to this water park with John and Karisa. WE LOVED IT!!
There's Oliver and and me going down one of the rides. And yes, Oliver is wearing a swimsuit.


And here are the boys on the Lazy River ride. Perfect after eating four slices of pizza.

We also visited Aunt Karisa at the inner-city school where she does speech therapy. It was a great tour and the students seem to love Karisa. The poster behind the boys is a display of celebrities with speech problems.

John and I didn't realize it was such a rarity to see Oliver in a bathing suit! We would've taken more pictures if we had known that!

Thanks for coming to visit us, and thanks for accepting our bad weather.
