Summer time fun
we started the summer off by celebrating John's 5th bday. how did he grow up so fast? i don't know. but some how every time i turn around i am planning his birthday party. this year we had a swim/transformers/star wars theme. the best and most relaxing party ever. we had a friend take some pics but they are really small on the blog so i will forward you the pics.
john blowing out his darth vader candle
opening up his transformer towel present. he was SO excited
daddy and addie being silly with the camera.
we went to Austin to see the Self's the day after john's birthday. we had a great time. but some how came away with one pic. i guess that is what happens when you have 4 adults and 5 kids. no time.
dan and i were able to get away for the evening and spend it with great friends and COLDPLAY!!!! : ) it was a great concert. well ok, i thought it was a great concert. dan sat in a chair most of the time wishing he wasn't there. : )
nothing like fun dip. john ate his so fast i couldn't get a pic.
"goggie" switch. addie thought it was so funny to switch swim goggles/sunglasses.
crazy rainy days equals...
crazy sick days.
we all caught a horrible summer cold and were out of commission for a week. the kids snuggled up on the couch and watched lots of tv.
this summer john and beanie have developed a closer relationship, which has been nice to see.
john's imaginations has EXPLODED!!!!!!!!!!!!
here he has lined up his lizards, and action figures to watch the rain storm. they watched it and talked about the storm for about 45 minutes.
john spends hours a day in make believe land!!! it is awesome to watch and hear all the conversations he has with his playmates.
today john and i wanted to be true southerners. i was missing gogo and had too many cucumbers that were sort of unusable. so we made lots of sweet pickles. they were awesome. i am very impressed with john's cooking skills.
