Surf Camp

We got to join Daddy for a day at Surf Camp. It was a ton of fun for the boys to play in the sand, throw rocks, dig for sand crabs, and hang with the students. We had such a blast. Eli even fell asleep before I got the car turned around to head home.

Visitors

We recently had Josh's family visit from Washington and Germany. We spent a great couple days hanging out, swimming, and going to the beach.

What are Big Brothers For?

To cover you in bubbles of course!

Ready..... Go

Eli's new phrase...

Coming Soon...

Baby Case 3 due September 21. Here is a little preview to him/her.

Today's Lesson...

Don't pull EVERY Kleenex out of the box during quiet time if you don't want to refold them and put them back...

Fire!

Eli is enamored with BBQ's and fire. He was actually found with some matches trying to light them (this happened at Papa and Meme's house). He finally saw his opportunity as he was alone in the backyard to get up close and personal with the BBQ... the problem was that he pulled it over on top of himself. The ash didn't seem to bother him and he actually was more disturbed that I pulled him away and made him get cleaned off.

Though he looks like he is hurt- it was just a face!

Skate Skills

Ezekiel's skate skills are getting better.

He now rides off the sidewalk with ease.

He can also send the skate board in front of himself and jump on.

His skateboarding level has now passed up Daddy's!

Sea Cliff Beach Vacation

The boys and I had the pleasure of accompanying Papa, Meme, and the Smith Family at Sea Cliff Beach for a vacation while Daddy was away with the students. We also got to spend a few days with Auntie Tiffany and Avery. It was a

BLAST. A definite must do again! Here are some highlights of our trip...

We played in the sand.

We dug for crabs.

Ezekiel went Kayaking.

He liked the experience until they got wet coming in and

the trip in was a little intense for

him.

Eli rode in the Kayak.

We got to touch starfish.

We loved our meals.

Nothings better while camping than biscuits on a stick!

We had fun playing all sorts of games.

We had such a GREAT time!

Work To Be Done

Ezekiel had Papa on the go while he was visiting. There was always something that needed to be done and Ezekiel was going to make sure it got finished. The top thing on Ezekiel's list was a hole/trench that needed to be dug in order to fix the sprinklers. Ezekiel had to wait, but at the end of the week he finally got to break ground. Here is the little worker. He was in heaven with all the dirt, shovels, and pick axes!

He swings a pick axe like a grown man!
