Summer fun

These suits are very popular and somewhat necessary this year!

Ready for action. 

This was in early June and even with wetsuits, the boys mainly ran in and right back out of the water.

Happy Father's Day to 3 quality Dads!

This is how we watch the World Cup.  Well, sometimes Aaron's seat isn't on the toilet.

A very popular game: 4 on 1.

My special Bub.  

The other day he asked, "Why do you call me Bub?"  

He supposed I could call him Bub as long as I still call him Peter too.

Joel successfully played 3 games at once.  The only complication seemed to be that Daniel would make several moves while Joel was distracted with the other 2 games.

This boy loves baths.  Good thing since he is still a poop monster!

Baseball Season 2014

Nathan was the only official baseball player this year.  He had many loyal fans at each game.

Practicing stealing bases.

The loyal fans were not always watching Nathan play, however.

Early in the season, Nathan would purposefully miss the batting machine pitches because he thought he could hit it farther off the tee.  By the end of the season he decided to start really swinging at the machine pitch.

Boys love trophies!

To celebrate Nathan's last day of school we had an early dinner, then headed to Sherman's Ice Cream for their "Pig's Dinner." It was huge, but we did all right with it.  I wonder how long it will be before we need two of them....

Speed....I am speed

Here's Daniel's last day of school.  This is his friend, Eli.

Aaron is not too proud to beg.

You know the thing that attaches a snorkel to the strap of a mask...?

Aaron got confused on which picture was the "crazy face" one.

Nathan's first grade award ceremony.

Practicing our tornado drill: in the basement, in a harp box...with food of course.   It could be a long tornado.

Daniel is teaching Aaron a new game: whack-an-ant

I would be remiss if I failed to mention a common game around here: Bugs

We had visitors recently with daughters who brought baby dolls.  Aaron comes from the caveman school of thought on how to treat a lady.
