What??? No picture of Henry??? Does this mean that Jason and Heidi actually went on a date???? Why yes it does!! Henry had a great time at home with Grandma and Grandpa while Jason and I went out on a date for the first time since... hmmm... well it had been a VERY long time. It is something we need to do more often before Claire comes home.
Jason and I had received a gift certificate for a segway tour last summer and we finally got around to using it. We met some friends for the tour and had a great time!! I will admit that I was kind of nervous about falling off but it really is not too difficult. The key is to not over think it. You just need to stand up straight and the segway will balance itself. The key to moving forward is shifting your weight toward your toes and the balls of your feet. To stop you shift your weight to your heals. When I first got on I of course was super wobbly and scared but they did a great job of teaching you how to do it and do it safely. There was only one minor incident wear I may have had trouble stopping going down a hill. Opps.... I may have over thought it a bit.... or not thought it enough..... I am not sure what happened, the good news is I beat the McLains. Whew.
I would HIGHLY recommend doing this to anyone who has an opportunity to do so. This was an awesome gift and it was something that I never would have dreamed of doing but absolutely loved. I am so glad that we did it and we learned a ton about the waterfront of Minneapolis. They have two other tours that we also want to check out sometime.
These three cousins have turned into baseball fanatics! They have had so much fun playing t-ball at my mom and dads house. It is fun to watch how much they have progressed in the past couple of weeks. Henry's throw is getting more and more accurate! His base running is still to go straight out past second base and then to turn around and run home.
Three very mellow kids who stay in their chairs,
Check out the enthusiasm!
Whoa... That is so cool
These three boys love their Grandma!! 
Happy Fathers Day Dada! We love you so much! We think you are one awesome dad!
Yum!
Quite a bit of time was spent in the sandbox.
Henry liked to hang out.
They loved the time spent in the pool!
Belly flops!
He really LOVED it!!!
Henry liked the boat but I would not say he loved it. Check out that face!
A girl and her dog, so sweet 
And after the wee ones were tucked safely in their beds we enjoyed the sunsets, great friends and bonfires.
The cabin is a great place to be!
These three amigos have so much fun together. Theseare the only two pictures that I have where they are all looking sort of in the same direction. Even if it is all of them looking away from the camera I will take it! Two year olds move way too fast!
I am really excited about sending the book. It is one of those books that you can record your voice while you read it. It is cool to think that she will be hearing our voices in just a few weeks! Henry really enjoyed the book as well. I think he may have been a little bummed to see it go. On the first page we all said I love you including Henry. It is so cute to hear his little voice telling Claire "Love you!" I also had a friend who had translated this book into Korean so I taped the translation onto each page so Claire's foster family can read in Korean too.
Henry where are you?
Here I am Papa
Are you coming?
Whee!!!
Whew... that was fun!

Two years ago today we saw our sweet boys face for the very first time. It is crazy to think that it has already been two years because I remeber the call like it was yesterday. One little phone call that changed our world forever!
We love you more than words can say.
