Weekend Wrap Up

Kyle sleeping soundly
Saturday was a relaxing day for us around the house. Jack and Jansen mowed the yard before noon and did some things outside around the house before it was 110 degrees outside! Jansen actually took a nap in the afternoon so we were very excited! He has pretty much given up naps for the most part. I went and bought a few groceries while he and Jack rested. When I got home we went to Daniel's parents house, ( Rita's in laws), who happen to be some of our best friends. Rita, Dan, Conner and Kyle came for the evening. Rita could lay around and rest there like she would have at home and it was good for her to get out of the house. Debbie cooked a wonderful dinner for us and the boys all swam after dinner. We had a great time!

Rita relaxed with Kyle beside the pool

Sweet face!


Jansen and Conner, not sure what they are looking at here, probably watching Jack do something crazy!!!



Jansen and Daddy having fun!
We also had a great day today at worship and relaxing here at home between morning and evening service. We are getting ready for Jansen's big week, he starts kindergarten this week! He is really excited about it, mommy on the other hand is having a hard time just thinking about it. My baby boy is growing up! I know he will be fine and will have a wonderful time meeing new friends that he will have for a very long time, I hope. We have just had a lot of changes in our life this year and I have been an emotional roller coaster a lot of the time. Thank goodness Jansen understands and he knows mommy just has to cry sometime! We will see how this week goes! Thursday is the big day so everyone say a prayer for us!!! (especially me!!)

Sweet Summertime and Slip n Slide

Yummy Watermelon on a hot summer evening

Jansen and Conner running through the Slip n Slide

J and C posing for a pic while soaking up the cool water


J acting like he was sliding on the Slip n Slide. He really just laid down and wanted me to take his picture!! He or Conner would not actually run and slide, they just played in the water and laid down in the water!



My 2 favorite boys-- my sweet son and my adorable nephew
Today has been soooo hot here in our town! I think it was right at 100 degrees today !! I love summertime but when it is this hot it's not really that much fun unless you are in water. So, this evening after dinner, I hooked up the water hose to the slip n slide and let Jansen and Conner enjoy cooling off! They had a blast together playing in the water! Who doesn't like a cold, red watermelon on a hot summer day too???!!!! We enjoyed the evening with Nana, Pop, Uncle Dan, Aunt Rita and Conner while eating watermelon and trying to keep cool.... Oh how we love summertime at our house!!!!!
