Lately...

We have just been enjoying the summer with playdates, pools, and popsicles. :) Braden and I have been enjoying our time together with no agendas. We have had playdates several times each week and I'm loving all of the free time! I know that the free time will be ending soon (uh...like Sept. 20th) so I'm just soaking it up for now. Poor Chris has been busier than when school is in session but this next week should give him some relief. He has been teaching summer school, subbing for a college professor, mowing, and doing all of the wonderful home projects his wife assigns him. :) Braden and I are looking forward to him being home a bit now so we can venture out on some family days.

Playdate with "Little Jackson" (Michelle's Jackson)

At least one popsicle a day in this heat...Mommy eats a few too!

Of course you have to get out the bubbles often in the summer! Braden and Sophie love chasing the bubbles wherever they go.

Enjoying a snack on the back deck and cheesing for mom. Oh yeah, check out the new haircut too...it's finally growing on us a bit (and I LOVE not having to brush it in the morning).

Chris working away in the heat....the playground is finished so now he has a little bit of time to put the timbers down, stain them, and mulch. What a guy!! Braden always says, "tank yuuuu Daddy." It's pretty cute. :)
