Not so lazy summer days...

I really love summer! All winter I sit and mope about how if only it were summer all my troubles would vanish, and it is sort of true! I just LOVE being outside!Today the boys started out being turtles:

 

After that we went to the MOPS playdate after dropping off a meal for a friend who just had a baby. The kids mostly played in the sand, as evidenced by their sandy heads. We were all sweaty when we got home, so I suggested we get out the sprinkler:

 

 

They mostly liked running away from the water, I think it was too cold:

 

After nap time Tate was being a ham: (I have been LOVING Picasa,thanks Nette!)

 

..and I got a good picture of the three kids:

 

Then we beat the heat by having some yummy ice cream cones after dinner:(what a mess!!)

 

 

 

And a cute one of Callie:

 

A funny Hunter saying from this evening:
-I put my hand on Brent's shoulder and told him I loved him right before dinner as we were sitting down, and Hunter said that he loved him, too. He then said, "Everybody loves daddy!" and I asked him why he thought everyone loved him and he said, "Probably because he's so sweet."
