Summer days

So, why all the swimsuit pictures and no pool? Well, #1 it was set up, but a little chilly this past weekend. And #2, what is better running around half naked outside in the sun in your swimming suit.

I have a trick I use to help the kids run down some energy. I was watching my sister's kids last saturday night, and it is always easier if I run them down as much as possible so they sleep hard all through the night.

How do I do this? We have races! Running as fast as you can as many times as you can from one end of our fence to the other, and we have a pretty good sized back yard, so this is no small "feet" for the little legs. They take this seriously. As you can see in the pictures below!






Then a little playing on the swingset!


Some handsome boys!


And you can't beat hotdogs and peas for dinner and brownies for desert!
