Things that Summer are made of

Our summer has kicked off and it's been lots and lots of fun! So much fun, I haven't had time to post pictures :) So here are some of our favorite things about summer so far!

Fun science projects- it's amazing that some vinegar and baking soda could entertain a boy for nearly an hour!

 "nilla" icecream!

 Mother's Day art work

 Glad Turner thinks I'm 15 :)  Such a sweetie

 zoo time with great friends!!

 Climbing on things we aren't suppose too

 Sis is obsessed with touching kids hair...guess she thinks its normal since everyone always touches her hair!

 Summer fun!

 playing peek a boo with adorable little Nash

 Celebrating Mother's Day with Grandma Judy

 our failed attempt at a Mother's Day picture

 playtime doesn't stop when Turner has to poop :)  Sis just plops right down next to him and continues to play- we bring the party to him!

 I can't get enough of this little princess

 No training wheels for Turner...he went straight from his Strider bike to a BIG boy bike at age 3! Took him 1 day to get use to it and it's no turning back now

 Boy do they like to play with one another

 sweet kisses from bubba

 On May 18, we celebrated Turner's Gotcha Day!  He got a new blow up pool and

 Scooby Doo pjs :) 

 What's a summer without Jordan!

 Lydia has her own little girl pool too!

 Turner's 1st black eye!  He ran into our bedroom door..after the crying stopped, he thought it was SUPER COOL!

 And what's summer without lots and lots of popscicles!

As you can see- we're off to a busy start!  We love spending our afternoons and evenings outside playing playing and playing!

Watercolor part 2- Pictures galore!!

 I have no excuse for it taking so long to update with more beach vacation pics...and I haven't even looked at sis' or moms!  Can you tell we love to take pictures!! 

 We loved seeing the little gecko's visit our front porch every morning!  So cute :)

 Sister and daddy saying Cheese!!

 Beach beauty!  Thank you mom for making this vacation so special!  We are blessed by you and dad's generosity...and certainly making lots and lots of wonderful memories!

 Toes in the sand......

 Trying to eat a twizzler while being buried in the sand is trickier than it looks :)

 Turner loved that E buried him in the sand! 

 Right in front of our spot on the beach was this man whose "job" is building sand castles on the beach-what a job huh!  He is a retired builder and now builds gorgeous sand creations for weddings, parties, family reunions etc.  Turner LOVED watching him...of course I was a nervous wreck he was going to knock it down! 

 "Mommy, she's naked, her boobies are showing!"

 One thing we love about Watercolor/Seaside is there are tons of outdoor places to eat!  So the kids can get up and run around while we enjoy eating!  This was one of those times- John and I were enjoying 2 dozen of oysters and a lobster sandwich roll!  YUMMY in my TUMMY

 Snugglin with my man!

 Lolly and Turner supporting their matching "Stinky's Fish Camp" shirts!

 Lovin their beach vacation! and look at those beautiful brown tans!

 Melt my heart!!  After  the beach, we usually visited the pool in the evenings!  Sis loved relaxing on the pool chairs

 Warming up after a swim

 Feeling so incredibly blessed!

 I LOVE her smile!

 I think every inch of Lydia's body was covered in sand!

 We saw 2 dolphins and a little shark while at the beach!  The dolphins were beautiful and super close to the beach

 This boy loves playing in the sand!

 The men in my life!! Hunka hunka hunka!

 This picture sums up how wonderful and FUN our trip was

 another beach beauty

 Taking a relaxing stroll

 The flowers were in full bloom and gorgeous!

Bye bye Watercolor- see you next year!
