June is already coming to an end

As per usual, I load up the boys' summer vacation on the front end with camps, Vacation Bible School, and lessons. And then I leave the second half completely open. It's nice to have a few weeks with nothing going on - giving the boys time to sleep in, have friends over, swim, and just plain enjoy the summer.

This month has been filled with a lot of fun activities. I just love this time of year, especially when the boys don't have school!

My favorite recent picture of Brennan - taken at Grandma Nan's and Grandpa Laroy's house last weekend

Swimming at home


Brennan's friend, Haley, is a great swimmer


The slide is always a huge hit

We've had a lot of wildlife this year in the yard. Here's a guinea fowl that I'd never seen before. We also have a deer who likes the apples that fall off the apple tree.


Brennan takes his blueberry picking assignment very seriously and checks out our two large bushes everyday.


We had the Matthews, Whitleys, and Sullivans over to swim last week. With 9 kids all in the pool at once, it was a lot of fun to watch!

For Thomas's birthday Friday night we stayed in and had pizza, cupcakes, presents, and swimming.
