Swimming at Grandpa & Grandma's

We spent part of Memorial Day weekend at Grandpa & Grandma's house. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool - it's already so hot here!

Smiley Boy

We've been enjoying lots of sunny personality lately.

The utility pole that provided a drumming surface last summer is now a tempting climbing spot.

Happy Mother's Day

I had a fantastic Mother's Day. The boys treated me so well - time to relax, lots of my favorite foods (that I didn't have to prepare), and lots of wet, sloppy kisses from Josh & Otis.

And on Saturday, I received a car wash by hand from two handsome guys!

A loaded question

In our home, a simple "Want to go for a walk?" causes pandemonium.

How does your garden grow?

Our plants grow with LOTS and LOTS of plant food




And a little extra dirt tossed on top, for good measure

Staycation

Last week Matt and I took a couple of days off and we enjoyed some family time. Then, on Saturday, Josh went to Grandma's house and Matt and I had a great date night all to ourselves! It's amazing how much more relaxing going out to dinner is when you aren't frantically counting the goldfish you have and calculating whether or not they'll last until the food comes.

Checking out the meerkats at the zoo.

Climbing something, of course.
