Pool Par-tayyy....

Last weekend we went up to the cabin, then came home to spend Sunday with my family.  My cousin and his girlfriend invited us over for a BBQ and pool party.  It was a lot of fun, thanks so much for hosting John and Erica!  The boys had a lot of fun swimming with my niece Harper and the rest of the family.

Me and my guys!

A look of pure love :)

Cousins

Harper is 100% a "water baby" and kept putting her face down in the water.

Wherever we go, Eli finds an animal!  Today was a grasshopper

Dressing up for dinner....

One of Dan's cousins was in town from Arizona so we met up with her for dinner.  The boys decided to dress up for the occasion!



Boys at the zoo

I spent a recent Sunday helping some friends paint the outside of their house so Dan took the boys to the zoo for some guy time. 


I should know better than to give Dan the camera.

Eli's favorite animal!

Keeping the boys busy

We are still keeping the boys busy and trying to cool off in this crazy heat.  Here are some pictures of our adventures!


Ben was "fishing"



The sprinkler caused a mud bath at the end so I sent the boys in to paint their bodies!  Eli wasn't interested but Ben took full advantage.


Boy (noun): a noise with dirt on it


Cartwheels and wheelbarrow races

Ben needed to stretch it out :)

Another one bites the dust....

Ben lost another tooth!  This was his third one, this time on top.  The one next to it is also loose.  I am already excited for December so I can sing to him "all I want for Christmas is my two front teeth...".
