The Aviary

We had a great time taking the boys to the National Aviary. It was actually really cool to see all the birds.

Ben loved the penguins the best (both real and fake). He periodically would yell "GOOOO PENS!" while we were there. heehee. You can tell we live in Pittsburgh!

These blue pigeons were pretty neat looking, but also creepy close to us!

Eli finally woke up and wondered where he was. :)

You can crawl into the penguins exhibit and check them out up close and personal.

Ben and I checking out the flamingos. Pretty neat!
Steve and Ben looking at the birds. (Don't ya love Ben's hair? it was so hot and humid!)

4th of July at the Cabin

The whole Cochran family got together at the Means/Kozain's cabin this year in Cooks Forest for the 4th of July. We had such a good time. The boys loved playing with their cousins and running around outside all day. What a great 4th of July!

Charlotte Rose Iszkula!

The boys finally have a little cousin! Erik and Carissa had a little girl, Charlotte Rose Iszkula. She is so cute!!! I'm sure she has many many years of being terrorized by Ben and Eli in her future! Hopefully she'll hold her own. :)
