summer fun

We have had a lot happen and I have been horrible at keeping up at the blog. Here are a few things that have been going on since school got out for the summer

James last day of Pre-school

Brea's first time in the tumbler watching mommy wash the car

Brea turned 4 months old

Duncan decided he likes the backyard swimming pool

James thinks the pool is "AWESOME"

We went to Aunt Jodi's house and played with these cute puppies

My Favorite "cutest" little pup

Trying to enjoy his vacation but, work calls always come in...

As you can see I was not very good at taking pictures. I have figured out the reason behind this. It is because:
1. I always have a kid in my arms. My camera almost take 2 hands it is kinda heavy.
2.I am always having so much fun with whoever we are with that I forget to get the camera out until it is too late
3. I am sure there are a lot of other reasons but, I don't want to be a complainer and so I will leave it at that!

So while I was on my week long vacation these are a few things we did:

• Spent a few days/night with Jodi and Chris in Annabella (watched a lot of kids so they could tile their new house)
• did a photo shoot for my sister (she breeds and sell mini/toy schnauzers)
• went shopping at the District (JC Penny's is always fun) The kids and Brandon got a few clothes
• delivered a puppy for my sister
• had a Park family reunion and met some new cousins. Ramie adopted these 2 cute girls
• spent some time at Dallas and Tim's house. They are always such great hosts
• Let the kids ride bikes and play in the courtyard at Dallas's
  
• Got together with some Family Friends
• Went to the Church History Museum (the Kid part only) with Dallas, Tim & Family and also Matt & Jaxon
• James had a sleepover with Jaxon (he had a blast)
• James played Mario Cart with Jaxon and was entertained for hours
  
• Visited Grandma and Grandpa Rice (Aunt Cindy came over to see baby)
• Had dinner and games with Lynn and Richard and Family
• Went and saw Shawn
• Drove home in some wicked rain on Father's Day Sunday
  

These are just a few things we packed into our week long trip. Brandon joined us on Wednesday night late. I was trying to keep the kids away so he could study for his Brokers test. He is almost ready for that now with us being away! :)
