1st week of summer break

We are having fun here.  They say it is the hottest start to June in history....that part is not so fun.  It pretty much is indoors or water.  All the kids like the area pool that we can go to.  It is a little stressful with Sylvie but we will definitely be going again.  Trying to keep an eye on Sylvie I did not get out my camera until we were about to leave.
 Our dear friends have had us over to their pool several times too.
Most of our time is spent with the boys playing video games with friends while I am doing housework.  There is just something that feels wrong about doing chores on summer break.  But I guess it has to be done.  Dalton is in the middle of this picture.  He tied one of his old gymboree blankets around his neck for a cape.  He is still such a little kid at heart.  I love that.
The boys finished up flag football and dance is over for the summer so there are NO activities planned on Saturday mornings.  Dalton loved flag football.  He was up, ready and rushing us out the door on game day. This is him bummed that the season is over.
We tried to go to the $1 summer movies Wednesday.  Sylvie was not having anything to do with sitting through a movie.  She wanted to talk to the people around us and play.  So we left the movie and walked around waiting for the restaurants to open up at 11.  Sylvie would not sit on the bench with her brothers.
Peyton IS getting that hair cut off.  I let him keep it long for school because he begged me and I did not want him to have to go back to school with such a drastic change but now it is GOING.

We got a new grill (Thanks Mom) and have been grilling out as much as possible....our freezer is stocked with some pretty awesome meat (Thanks Kathy and Leon).  I love it when we grill.  Dalton usually comes out to throw football with Chris and Sylvie wanders around doing her thing.  Chris was letting her try his orange soda last night.  She loved it.


Well that has been our week in a nut shell.  I hope everybody has a fantastic weekend.  We do not have the first thing planned.
