We have had a very busy summer at the Fernau household. Levi has kept us busy with many walks and bike rides and many, many trips to the back yard to visit the neighbors horses. Levi loves to be outside and dig in the garden or help grandpa pick up sticks. He loves to see any truck or car drive by the house and loves to go to Grandma and Grandpa Fernau's house to play and see the trains down the street from their house! He is getting excited about Baby Fernau coming in a a few months and loves to give the baby kisses and hugs! He is starting to form full sentences which is so fun for us to hear and we are also working on the Alphabet with him! He can make it all the way to "F" before he gets bored with it :)
Here are a few pictures from our summer!

| At the end of July we had a wind storm one evening and the neighbors tree blew over onto Joe's car. Our Amish neighbor, Henry, came over the next morning with his chain saw and took care of the branches for us. He wanted to wood for firewood. Thankfully no one was hurt and there was not major damage to the cars or the houses. |

| Grandma and Papa Fernau were down helping us with baby sitting the week of the wind storm so they were able to help with the clean up as well! |
 |
| Levi, of course, was a huge help as well! He still talks about the "tree, boom down, on dada's vroom vroom" (the tree fell down on daddy's car) :) |
