July...this and that (catching up...)

Swim Award Winners

high point for 6 and under ... rookie of the year for boys on the team

A warm humid morning (haven't had many this summer)...pulled out the slip and slide

And filled some water balloons...

The boys have been WAITING for the chance to mud again...finally had their chance in the garage!

joe was taking a snack break

 Jake now reads to Joe...and they both love it...for now...

This was Jake's creation (an original) for a 4H project...a camp scene

Stopped to take this shot b/c it happens often...the boys barely finish breakfast and hover over books looking at pictures and enjoying re-"reading" the story by looking through the pictures...

I feel very safe in our house...(never know where these guys are gonna show up)

 After our picks from the blackberry patches...
