Summer fun

Yes its November now - so here in a nutshell is what we did over the summer break:


Lots of swimming...







































































































































































Fourth of July - watching the fireworks with friends...












































yes jadie is in her pajamas ...
























Monsoon storms ...
























Dinner by candle light during the monsoon storm that knocked our power out...
























The homemade tv the kids "watched" during the storm...
























Trying to picnic in the shade of our tiny tree

























We decided to take some doughnuts and milk to the park one sat for breakfast - the kids rode their bikes.

























The kids call this place "Spider man park"  ... Lexi playing on the web - pretty talented with rain boots on!

































more playing in the web
racing down the slide

























biking in 100 degree weather + doughnuts + strawberry milk = one sick 11 year old
























One handsome little man chillin in the shade

























Fun balloon hats at the restaurant at family dinner...
 Lots of dressing up!

































 Our annual candlelight spaghetti dinner the night before school...accept that it was lasagne

























And the first day of school -    Bailee sixth grade, Raden third, and Lexi first
