Including playing baseball daily around here (I LOVE my daily game of catch with Jake!), summer has gotten off to a great start. One of our favorite things so far was having our cousins Max and Brayden come stay with us. I seem to have forgotten to get the camera out, but we enjoyed the dinosaur museum, a walk to go get shaved ice, playing, playing and playing, tasting Uncle Phil's juice creations,
and camping in the living room. These cousins are our best buddies and we loved having them around!
Saleswoman at the door: "Hi I am selling insect treatments. We get rid of spiders, ants, wasps..."Benjamin, running from outside towards the front door: "MOM!! I THINK I JUST GOT STUNG BY A WASP!"
Me: "No, I think we're just fine. Thanks for stopping by!"
Poor Ben. His whole nose and both eyes were swollen for a few days.
After scoring with our Father's day gift, (above mentioned Juicer which Phil has used every day. I am a horrible gift giver and this is a huge success for me!) we thought we'd try another fun kitchen contraption and got Phil Yo-nanas for his birthday. This machine turns bananas and other fruit into "ice cream". The verdict is still out, but tonight's bananas and nutella were pretty darn good!!
Saturday was one of the boys' favorite days of the year: going out on the boat with our neighbors! They love it and as you can see from our smiles, a good time was had by all! (Apparently I can't keep my eyes open when I am being whipped around the back of a boat!) It was a beautiful day!
So far, so good. For better or worse, only two more months of summer to go.
