Patriotic wonder woman.

Snuggling before bed at the lakehouse. Love my racoon face from wearing my sunglasses in the sun everyday.

The unltimate super hero!

We met up with my dad one day for an early dinner. Mac was out of town and so was my mom and Hubs was still working, so it was just us three.

Made blueberry muffins from scratch with freshly picked blueberries. Heavenly!

Cousins and a lunch picnic indoors since it was way too hot to be outside.

Coloring on a beach ball at daddy's company picnic.

Mac lost his second tooth and his first adult tooth is coming in great!

Finally getting to fly our kites.

These two had  no naps and a lot of cake and ice cream and they were all giggles! 

It was hilarious!

Waiting for swim lessons to start.

Oak experienced her first piece of gum when her cute little friend at taekwondo gave her some. She thankfully did really well. 

Mac jumped off the diving board at the end of his first week of swim lessons. He loved it and could have done it over and over again. He is doing so great with lessons!

Oak had all the letters in her name down now and we just now need to get them in order. She is very good at the double E.

I asked her to draw a turtle and this is what she drew. Isn't it so cute??

Mac tried to run away when he got mad that he had to wait to watch a movie until we could get the tent set up so we could eat dinner and watch the movie inside it. Sometimes trying to make things fun backfires! Grrrr!

Cute kids on the tramp at grandma's 

I went to put the spray nozzle (that we hadn't used in a couple of weeks) on the hose so we could wash the car. I looked inside and saw a bunch of dead grass in it so I pulled it out and there was more, then I pulled that out and then all these dead green grass hoppers fell out of it. It was so weird. So a grasshopper must of layed a nest or something, not sure. Weird!

Our garden looks great! I love going out everyday and seeing if there is anything to pick. We have picked a few zucchini and a few cucumbers and a couple of peppers. And even two little cherry tomatoes. YUM! 

A flower chain for this pretty girl.

I asked them to go and wash their hands before lunch and they obviously thought their feet needed washed too. They were soaked up to their waists and the counter and floor were covered in water. It was pretty cute! Although I told them never to do that again.

Oaklee is really into taking pictures with mom's phone lately. She told us to do silly faces.

Playing at the park after swim lessons.

McCoy fell asleep on the couch like this one Saturday afternoon.

For Christmas I gave Bryce a guided fishing trip for him and his dad. They went salmon fishing out in the ocean. They had so much fun!

This is their catch (the four on the left side).

We put the tent up one evening to watch a movie and eat foil dinners. We didn't sleep in it, but the kids loved it!

Mac doing awesome in lessons. They could hardly keep him above water because he loves it so much.

At the end of every class they get to jump off the diving board. He loves it!
