Roll Out Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer!

Life has been lovely! I Love summer time! The smell of sun screen, chlorine, eating popsicles and hamburgers really captures it for me. We have had the perfect mixture of busy and lazy and it is wonderful. Stew is done with his preceptorship and I am almost done with my recent surge of ceramic craziness. Today I have my last big eventish thing and I will be very glad when it is over with. There is such a thing as too much ceramics!!! But I must admit I love days like today when my latest glazed load turns out great! I love unloading my kiln to find gleaming beautiful impressions.

Despight my busy work load we have been able to play a lot and get myself a really lovely sun burn! So FUN !!!! ;) We haven't been great about taking pictures but we have taken a few. Here are some of the fun things we have been up to that I thought to bring our camera to. :)

Playing at Lazy 5 park. Angeli was sick and was a trooper for letting us drag her along even though she was miserable. My poor baby girl she had alergies, teething, and a cold all at once!!!


She could hardly open her eyes they were so swollen, so sad!



We love building forts together . For father's day Stew got The Jungle Book movie from the kids and I. It has always been one of his favorites - Stew loves animals. :) So we made a jungle inspired fort covering our TV and had a fun movie night together. Note the tiger atop our fort. :) Angeli and Bridger were growling all night because of it. Angeli's growl is the most pathetic cute growl I have ever heard! We Love it!

Bridger on the prowl

Playing peek-a-boo

Look how sick she looks, but still smiling. That sweet girl.

We have actually been able to use our community pool now that we have two parent to go along. YAY!! Angeli is not a water baby. She clings to me like a baby monkey and cries if I try to do anything "daring" with her. She gets better each time we go though and Bridger... he just plain loves it. :O)


This is Angeli being very daring, standing in the water by herself!

* Although my blog is sporting this fun song I do not endorse beer, bikinis, the use of the word "wieners" in place of "hot dogs" and unwed couples making out in cars! ;) LOL

Hey Emily! Sounds like you guys have been having a lot of fun. I am going to be making my blog private, so I just wanted to give you a heads up! I am pretty sure I have your e-mail, but if not, I will let you know later! Also, we have play group at my house this week if you guys would like to come. I know you are leaving soon, but just a heads up! Have a great weekend!

Looks like you have having lots of fun too! I bet it is such a difference than during the school year and it seems like you guys have lots of fun things to do around your house. I bet the kids are loving the pool. They are both growing up fast. I wish we could see more of you guys. I don't even know when we'll see you next but hopefully it is sooner than later. We'll be (fingers crossed) hopefully coming to CA for Chelsea's wedding in either August, or most likely Dec if they really do decide to get hitched!!! Maybe we'll get together then. I hope you have such a fun vacation getting to see everyone and going home too. Take lots of pictures!!
