friday fun

We had quite a bit of pool time this week.  House sitting has it's perk, especially when they have a pool. Annie and Meg came over for a swim and picnic.  

The boys discovered the outdoor pool shower.  It was quite a hit.  My boys love their shower these days and what can beat a shower that's outside!

Brothers

He was pretending to be some kind of speed boat transformer.

In the last week or two, Julia has discovered her hands.  She loves to look at them and eat them.

That's Shep under there.  He stayed under there a good 5 minutes.  I thought maybe he'd fallen asleep or something.  He informed me on coming out, that he had been playing hide and seek with himself. I asked him if he had won and he replied, "Nope."

Friday night we made 'kabobs!  The boys were all over the place into everything, so I decided to enlist their help to make their own 'kabob.

Oh, look, Shep's making a crazy face.

Yummy!  Shep made his and then immediately tried to eat it.  Umm...we need to cook it first.

Miraculously, no one picked the stick into their finger.

The yard sprinklers came on while we were grilling.  Shep could not resist.

Trying out the saucer swing.

I'm sure going to miss having a yard when we go back to apartment living.  It sure has been a treat.

Her cute faces are endless:)

We were celebrating because Zack officially finished his dissertation.  He presented two movements for his defense, but still have to write the third.  It took a little longer than he had hoped ( I can't understand why, we've only just had a baby and lived in 3 different houses:), but it's DONE!  He wrote a piano concerto with wind ensemble, which will be performed in VA in October!

Happy Friday everyone!
