Golf Championship

The BMW Championship came to Lake Forest and knowing what avid golf fans my parents were, I invited them down to go with me.  I had never been to a professional golf event before and so was happy to have them with me to show me the ropes.  Their BMW keys also got us into an exclusive section of the seating/eating area with some other freebies, which was even more exciting.  Overall it was a lovely afternoon and it was nice to spend some quality time with my parents just the three of us.  Matt, meanwhile, had taken the kids to the All State Insurance family day carnival courtesy of his Uncle Mike who is retired from the company.

Basement dug out!  That's the garage door opening up into the pit!

You would not believe it, but we had monsoon rains this week and our newly dug out basement was flooded!  Matt had to pump out all the water and try to secure all the mud walls to prevent them from collapsing
