Summer Review Part A

With Cael starting school last week and Jordan staring school this week, I can officially say that summer is over. I am more than excited to have a daily routine again, and even more excited to have  fewer hours of blank stares sitting in front of the television.  But looking back through pictures and thinking about all the fun we have had this summer, I am really sad to see it end.

So hear is our summer in review...


The 1st annual School's out Camp out. ( Backyard style) 


If you now this Momma, camping in the woods is not for me.  Doing it out in our backyard is perfect!

No wildlife (except for Gus) and I have my very own potty.

Raynel might feel a little differently.

First Lost Tooth (Finally!!!)

This poor kid had to wait until the summer of his first grade year to finally become a man and loose his first tooth. It was a happy day.


The Perfect Summer  Doo

Jordan has really grown up this summer. From long locks to short and sassy.

...oh and don't forget the ear piercing too!

 

 

 

 The Sheriff turned 2!

Stetsons new name is the Sheriff. I don't think there is a need for an explanation.


Swimming, Swimming and More Swimming!

Cael has had the swimming break through this year. For years this kid would be too scared to leave the step at the shallow end of the pool. When he was 3 years old, he was so scared of water that he would scream and hyperventilate if you carried him out into the pool. But that kid is no more! Thanks to a fabulous swimming teacher (the one and only Sabrena Suite-Mangum) and to a wonderful Aunt with a pool. This kid is officially a swimmer!

 

Jordan too has had a great summer of swimming. She loves jumping off the diving board and loves swimming under the water from the step to wherever I am in the pool.

 

Stetson loves the water.  He loves jumping off the side of the pool and loves floating around by himself in his cool monkey life jacket.

Our Many Trips to the Fire Station

 

There is nothing cooler then a dad who is a fireman. So there are many trips to see him... and the fire trucks.

 

Herriman Beach

We love where we live for so many Reasons. But this beach has become a place that our kids just love to go!

We love it more when cousins come too!
