And then we snapped (days 289 – 295)

 

Summer is winding down. Without even looking at the calendar we can feel it in the air. Now that this week is over we only have one week left until we are back to school. After you make your way through my week make sure you visit Mel and see her beautiful week, then continue through the whole circle!

Day 289:

The day started with one of the lesser artistic shots I’ve taken but I was pretty excited to have all three boys in the same frame; and it was pretty cute when they noticed me. The day ended with a sweet Popsicle snack shared on the porch; although not everyone was invited.

Day 299:

So let me walk you through what happened…

He wouldn’t look at me.

So I said “Baby, look, the fox came back.”

He looks my direction, and I made the mistake of chuckling and saying “I tricked you.”

Then I got the look, which did not end for about five minutes…

Lesson of the story, do not joke about the foxes that visit our yard!

Day 291: These are what most of our evenings look like. A lot of bike sitting, golfing, and shoveling the driveway (yeah, I said shoveling..he loves it, I don’t ask questions)

Day 292: Unfortunately our week wasn’t all fun and games. Our middle dude, who never gets sick, got sick. Fevers, headaches, body aches = lots of sleeping, Minecraft, and iPad.

Day 293: Rainy days mean he sits wrapped up in a blanket, soaking up some of his much loved computer games before the school year begins.

Day 294: It was soooo hot and sooo humid. Dad said “why don’t we just have ice cream for dinner” …Yes, I think we will

Day 295:

My oldest took a walk with me to see what kind of fun we could have in the fog. I got some shots that I love…

…and it wouldn’t be real life if I didn’t include the “out-takes”
