Well, we have certainly had a great time traveling; first to Ohio for Tara and Marshal's wedding, then to Mesquite for Todd and Heather's wedding, and finally back to Ohio for Bryan and Tessa's wedding. Actually, I should correct that last statement...we did NOT have a "great time traveling," but we did love all of the time spent with family and friends, and are so grateful for more memories to cherish! However, it is very good to be settled back at home. We are enjoying our summer playing outside a ton and soaking up the sunshine; going to the pool, playgrounds and spraygrounds, parks, and even just in our own backyard! I haven't been taking my camera out as much as I should, but here are a few recent highlights recorded on camera...
At Bryan's wedding, we learned that Shae is qutie the dancer! She was cracking us up with her sweet moves. The faces she makes are absolutely hilarious; these still pictuers do not do her dancing justice (she really gets into it!!). You have to see it in person to appreciate it!
THE boys.

Here are the stages of Teegan rolling over...

Our trip to the Historical Museum. Even though Cooper's expression (in the hat) looks like "c'mon Mom, just take the picture so I can take this hat off," he actually surprised me when he came around the corner with it on...It was too funny; he is such a unique, fun boy, always up to his own thing. Next to that, Jadan is looking through an old version of the modern "view finder." It was pretty neat!

More memorable Teegan faces...I have been trying to capture a shot of him chewing on his foot, as that is lately my favorite...

The kids were SO excited to show Daddy their "Roley-Poley" bug collection. They went on a hunt on the sidewalk after it was too dark to play out in the yard. They found quite a few...Jadan put the bucket around the corner, where it was darker away from the porch light, so the Roley-Poleys could "get a good night sleep." The Roley-Poleys slept good, indeed, as the kids sadly discovered them dead the next day. Guess the bucket hotel proved too difficult to climb out of.

more miscellaneous, but cute pictures...

love, love, LOVE this sweet boy! and his adorable, big blue eyes!!!

Coloring Cooper! That's his
all-time favorite thing to do right now. He actually spends more time coloring than with a sword, if you can believe that!! And he is exceptionally good, too! His teachers in Sunbeams and, actually, everyone that has seen him color, are so impressed with his love of coloring and how good he does! Here, he is coloring a paper towel. It turned out very cool...Stripes are his favorite thing to color; he gets mad if he colors one stripe bigger than another or it's not "just right." I love the stripes, but my favorite is when he free-hands a drawing as opposed to a coloring page. It really is very cool abstract artwork! Then, I ask him, "what's this, Cooper?" He just says "I dunno." It's like he just visualizes something and puts it on the paper. Future Picasso, I think!!!
