May and June 2010

We have all taken turns passing a virus back and forth here in the Nelson household. The last week was my turn (again) and I am now feeling good enough to post some photos of the past few weeks. Sorry for the long post! All of the photos were clumped together so I had to post them all at once.


MAY 2010
Evan having some fun on his new Slip N' Slide! He has been stealing my headbands lately...Colvill Park at dusk - we went fishing down by the boat ramp a few times in May.Jeremy caught a few sunnies. Jonas actually playing fetch! For those of you who know Jonas, you know he does not play fetch. He's a beagle, not a retriever. A late May trip to the MN Zoo. As a special treat, Becky came with us. We went the morning before Katie and Justin's baby shower. It was a beautiful day! We've barely seen the sun since! I think Evan keeps waiting for the Komodo Dragon to breathe fire.

Ugh! What an ugly fish!One of Evan's favorite things at the zoo - the poison tree frogs.Awww!

The zoo had a free jump castle for the opening day of Shrek IV in 3D. We passed on the movie, but couldn't pass up the castle!

Memorial Day 2010

We met some friends on a beach and played in the sand. I think Memorial Weekend might have been the last day in June that we haven't seen any rain!

Justin showing the kids a HUGE sand spider.

Noah and Jeremy dressed like twins for the day. We ended the weekend with a delicious fish fry at Jeremy's Mom's house - yum! Fresh caught sunnies! And, of course, Evan requested that Dad take him "four-wee-wer-in."
Saturday we headed back to the zoo. I got a kick out of this picture. "Uh, Dad - is that you? You look different."
Out for a bike ride with Jonas and Daddy. Showing off his Thomas the Train helmet and knee pad (he definitely needs both.)
