Summer fun and summer projects, but mostly fun.



Ready for a Fourth of July parade!
Caleb is a stink.

They are throwing candy!

Hello sir!

These kids were excited to get some water bottles thrown out at them.

Tractor!

Time to head to Grammy's house
for a water balloon fight with Uncle Spencer.

Spencer will not be defeated.

Why watch the fireworks the neighbors are setting off
when you can be playing with matches with Aunt Roger?


The jet skis are more fun than fireworks too.

We climbed up on the roof to look for more fireworks anyway.

Grumpy is brave enough to take them all by the edge.

This is all right!


The Fifth of July should be a sleep-in day.


Jayden, you are really just too big for these carts now.

Celebrating a double birthday.


Lake day!

It's cold!

Now it's hot!

Hanging out in the shade.

Do you want us to loosen that strap for you buddy?

We took this picture to show that the lake is super full this year.
But what a cute picture!

Lego time!


Matching girls.

You like our teeth?

Enjoying our sunflowers.


Howdy!
It took Caleb a full 30 minutes to warm up to the bubbles at the primary party.
(he did the same thing last year too).

But then he had a blast.

I'm bubbled.

Giving up and just taking these jars to the dump.

And these four full boxes of fluorescent bulbs. 

Starting a new project.
Caleb was a good helper. 
Jayden helped a lot more than Caleb, but we didn't catch a picture.

Parking his tricycle and blocking the wheels so it doesn't roll away.
Craig was a proud Daddy.

Ready...

Aim....

Look!  I hit it!

Mom couldn't resist catching this picture.


Big brother and sister teaching Caleb how to swim.

You did it!

Caleb's preschool orientation.
He's getting big!

We decided for school this year,
we will be doing some cooking and Caleb decided to wear his chef's hat.
Are we making a brew today?


Having a mesh bag on hand is a must-have if you have a four year old.

Science day!

Time to bring in the big guns....Daddy.
It's coming down!

Destruction is Caleb's specialty.

Dress up day again.
This is a great outfit.

Jayden is tired of working.
Is my room almost done?

A summer birthday party with friends.


An original movie poster for the movie
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Cheese pupusas (similar to arepas con queso) while watching Encanto.

Time for some beautiful music.

Craig is finally getting rid of his old 1998 G3 Mac.

Celene helped us get this old type writer up and running.

We went outside one evening to watch the lightning storm,
and were surprised to find the hill behind our house on fire! 

Boom!


Taking another load of jars to the dump.


Time to take out the shelving.

Safety first guys.


So many cinderblocks.

The cleanup is done, let the construction begin!


Time for a lunch break.
Caleb is nice to share his quesadilla.


Book of Mormon marathon with Grammy.
These kids are spoiled.

We love you Grammy!
