Summer Days....

recently ours consists of late afternoon visits from the ice cream man,

making an absolute mess creating their own "library" (although I can't really blame them- it is more constructive than TV),



sharing brotherly love at times,
pretending to go to school,


and a few days here and there with a coupleof friends at the lake! This was last weekend...Adam pulled his groin right after this shot trying to do a gainer off the top dock....

Just to let you know-

I have not been ignoring my blog...I just haven't been taking any pictures. So, I have nothing new to post. But I won't be a complete disappointment- I'll atleast share what we have been up to lately. Since the 4th have been trying to get some things done around the house, I've been in search of a housekeeper, but have yet to find one, swimming lessons are still friday mornings usually followed by playtime with Avery and Kacy. Walker is doing good- still growing!! I am about to re-do my guest room. That should be fun; it's kind of been our un-finished/catch-all room since we moved in. I sold the furniture in it last week and bought a new bed for it, but it still needs re-painted so you'll get pictures from that soon enough. Jackson starts Pre-K the first week of August! His orientation is Thursday night- I can't believe it! WHAT am I gonna do?!?!? (I'll probably get alot more done during the day to tell the truth) but I'm still a little sad he's going, he's a big boy now! That's all I can think of for now...see you soon! (with pictures I promise!)

Happy 4th !!!

After the party yesterday we headed to downtown Kennesaw with a group of friends to watch the fireworks and listen to a local band... here are some pictures from the night!






It was a pretty good firework show and lasted quite awhile... then the kiddos did sparklers!



You remember these two people right???


Jackson and "Jeremy-bump" (there's a story behind the name)
A few of the kids watching the choo-choo go by...Avery, Caisen, Jackson, Maddox- they LOVED the train!





Hope you and yours are having a great weekend too! We're headed to the pool now and then to a cookout! See you soon! Happy 4th!

Birthday Bash

We celebrated Maddox's big day on Saturday by having a pool/pizza party!! We rented the clubhouse and did pizzas, presents, and cake inside then took the party poolside! Here are some shots of the pool...


Maddox showing off his new ride from Grandma Sandy- a big boy tri-cycle!

Happy 3rd Birthday to Maddox!!!

Our little guy turned 3 on Friday(July 2)! we started our morning with the usual swim lessons (which he did much better with this week) and then we played at a friends house and had cupcakes and let him open his presents from us Friday afternoon! Here's the little rugrat blowing out his candle and eating his cupcake :)

Just Hanging

Here's Mr. Grumpy Pants he wanted to get dressed- so he went in search of some clothes to put on.
We've been hanging at the pool a bit- the boys are in lessons once a week so I try to practice with them a few times a week as well. Here are a few shots from the other day of both of the boys swimming with me....ignore my face in all of these - I was getting splashed in the face the whole time from their kicking!

Maddox is fearless almost in the water-
Jackson is a little timid; he gets nervous about going under

practicing "kicking his legs"

Taking a break playing with their toys on the stairs
