SOAKING UP THE LAST OF SUMMER 2010

Summer is almost over. It's back to the daily grind come Monday. I'm a bit sad to see summer go because it seems to have gone by way too fast, but we love a routine and schedule so it will be great getting back to that. Bethany will begin her high school years. Grant will start 1st grade. Both of which are quite hard to believe (although sometimes it seems like Grant should surely be graduating by now and Bethany should already have a career - HA!). We've had family get-togethers. We've had good times with good friends. We've spent many hours by the pool enjoying our share of homemade popsicles and other cool treats. 

Where daddy showed us that at almost 36 years of age, he's still got it:

And I must second it that yes, contrary to what I thought until he proved me wrong, he does still have it even if he was seeing stars when he came up. :) 

And not to be outdone by said almost-36-year-old, B and Country Girl had to have a go at it:


As did my little daredevil, Mac:

And in true Professor style, Grant just watched commenting every now and then, "You probably shouldn't do that again, yeah, no, DO NOT do that again."

And I have about 1,978 pictures of Umby and CG trying their best to turn the boys into little stuntmen:

Of course Turbo is busy doing his own thing which is never too far from me:


We've had quite a few lake trips where we've gotten together with friends we wouldn't otherwise see very often. 



We've done our share of crafts.
 

Notice the tongue-action again. :) And doesn't everyone paint in their skivvies? 




And so on and so on. All-in-all it's been a great summer! School year 2010-11, ready or not here we come!

Seems like it flew by this year! But it looks like you made the most of it, and that's what counts! :)
