Fun in the sun

Summer is officially here, although it has seemed like it here for a couple of weeks already! This first week of summer has already brought 100 degree days. The only thing to do when it's that hot, is swim!! So, that's exactly what we've been doing, pretty much every day. Either in our little pool in the backyard or to a new water park that we found here in Lewisville. It's called Old Town Aquatic Park and the boys love it...and so do I! I haven't taken any pictures of us there yet, because I'm either going by myself or with another mom with kids. Therefore, it's hard to get the camera out when we are all wet and trying to keep track of the kids.
But here is a picture of what it looks like:

We had a wonderful Father's Day. We let Mike sleep-in and I had the boys draw him a picture. We then got ready and went to lunch with Gma & Gpa Engleman and Aunt Mandy & Shelley. We then went out to Gma & Gpas house for swimming and birthday cake & presents. Mike and my Dad both have birthdays this coming weekend. So we decided to celebrate Fathers Day/birthdays all together that day. We had a fabulous time! Here are a few pictures of the boys enjoying the little pool Gma & Gpa got for the boys out at their house:

The Big storm of '09

Our poor trees didn't fare so well in the horrible storm we got last night and this morning:


Luckily the boys thought it was really cool to be without power because they got to play with flashlights! Daddy taught them how to make animal shadows on the wall - they thought it was awesome. They also liked taking a bath by candlelight! Thankfully they fell right asleep and slept through all the lightning, thunder,rain and hail.

What would a post be without some cute pictures of the boys? Aunt Mandy gave the boys King Tut hats from the museum. They loved them!
