A little bit of summer 2011...

It is now the last week of July - man, summer flies!!  We are definitely not ready to hit the books again yet, but I am sure we will be by mid-August.  Here's a bit of what we have been up to this summer. . .
A little backyard bbq - that's a lot of kids for one table!!

And of course, Ohio Days in Waverly KS. The kids look forward to this all year long!!

We love to make homemade soft pretzels...Austin chose to be creative and make his name - not bad!

Annual July 4 camping trip.  This would be breakfast - orange soda.  The kids were having a little slice of heaven.  That's Gabriella and Lucas doing "cheers" before taking a drink.  No wonder they love camping!!

Lazy summer morning...


And sometimes you are just so dang tired you can't even get up on the couch before falling asleep.  Hilarious!!  It's hard work for a two year old to keep up with the craziness and late nights of summer.  Gotta catch a little snooze when you can!
So, that's a little bit of what's going on here.  The kids are all getting to go to the farm this week (by 2's).  Austin and Ashlyn left today and Lucas and Gabriella get to go on Wed.  They are super excited!  We are still looking forward to a trip to World's of Fun and a float trip on the river with the kids this summer.  I really don't want to think about school and getting up early yet, but I have a feeling it will be here before we know it!  Hopefully I can update y'all in less than a month this time. . . With daycare, tutoring and extra textbook work it's been a busy household here - especially when you throw in lots of time at the pool!!
