Oh, what do you do in the summertime….

when all the world is green brown?

You get out of town and do some hiking in Sedona

At least it’s reddish brown there, mixed with some green. (It’s actually quite beautiful…I’m seriously wishing I had a good camera to do it justice). 

 

Do you swim in a pool to keep yourself cool? 

No, because you are having a major bee infestation.  Yes, that is about 500-1000 bees in our eave (in layers too).  Poor Ella was stung last week while swimming in the pool.   This was actually after we had a bee removal guy come and spray the hive inside the eave.  These were the bee’s that were out collecting pollen while he sprayed.  We also killed about 30 bees in Hailey’s room this day…they came in through the exhaust fan. 

 

Or swing in a tree up high?

No, but you and your cousin knock one down and break it’s pot by dragging about 20 blankets through the house. 

Is that what you do, so do I!

PS- FYI- to those not LDS- the red is a song the kid’s learn in primary :-)

What we’ve been up to..

Experiencing the magic………….

  

 

Racing cars………….

 

(April) Foolin’ the kids……….

Those nuggets are donuts, and jello for punch….they should’ve guessed something was up because we never drink punch.

 

Celebrating a 7th birthday……….

  

 

Enjoying Easter……….It was fun having you Jo and Jim, Rich and Crys, and Neil and Heath.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cousin fun….Aaron reminds me of a cute bunny in this picture.

Ending the school year…….

 

 

Getting Cabbage Patch kids at Phoenix Children’s…she was my pin cushion.  We have officially been giving shots for about 25 days now.   I’ve already seen a change in her energy level.

 

Waking up to a destroyed trampoline.  I think it had a Wizard of Oz experience.  Apparently, it flew over our back fence and landed about 60 feet away. 

Swimming in our new ghetto-fabulous above the ground pool (from Craig’s list) .  I swore I wouldn’t go another Phoenix summer without something to swim in.  In fact the kids are swimming in it right now….sooo nice.  Anyone in AZ, you’re welcome to join us!
