Summer Heat....

...makes them silly. We also do a LOT of swimming in this heat...

Here are the girls at their last swim meet. They BOTH love swim team. Mom? Not so much.... Hey, don't judge. You sit 6 1/2 hours at a swim meet then tell me how much you like it!? It will be easier next year....



Here is Stan's favorite part of summer. Projects! We updated the girls bath to have a more functional sink... Thank you Granddaddy and Daddy!! It only took some sawing and a blow torch and presto! :-(


We decided it was too HOT to go see the Symphony play this year and watch the city fireworks. So, this year daddy drove out and got the kids all kinds of fun stuff! They had a complete ball... Thank goodness no one called the police on us as it did get a little crazy... But, so so much fun.


Here is Daddy and Anderson walking to the end of the sidewalk for the next set of loud bursts. Snoodle slept through the whole thing - miracle!


Two of my Sorority Sisters came over and Stan grilled and we sat and talked and talked and talked.... we made the kids Shirley Temples while Daddy made us Watermelon Margaritas! Delish.


Here are the goofies at the pool. How cute is that baby???? I can't stand it - he is sooo full of baby sweetness right now....


Did I mention the heat is making us silly?!?
Here is Anderson??? in his Transformer Costume..... ;-)


Mo thought that was pretty funny....


Kids are getting desperate for summer crafts. They have been making Duct Tape projects by the dozen!! I don't have any pictures, but they are making bows, bags, pens, bookmarks all out of duct tape. Here is Ainsley Grace's Bunny nose out of the egg carton she swiped out of the trash....


Say Cheese!

Hi I'm a new fan from Catholic Mothers Online! Your pictures are adorable and I love the Dr Seuss quote at the top - one of my faves!
