Vacation {final shots}

A couple more cute shots of the boys. The 2nd is them with their new hermit crabs.

Vacation {rock climbing}

There's a pretty decent sized rock wall at Broadway at the Beach and Spencer just loves these things. Spencer & Grant did the wall and were even allowed to do it twice - the 2nd time on a harder course. They did great, making it to the top on both!

Vacation {putt putt}

We always have to play putt-putt...usually only once, but Spencer would do it everyday if we let him! I stink at it!

Vacation {on the beach}

For whatever reason, this year we spent much more time on the beach, and less in the pool, than normal. I enjoyed the beach much more than usual. And I think Spencer & Grant had a really good time in the ocean...especially after Spencer got a new, larger boogie board! They also enjoyed trying to catch the tiny little fish, and having mud fights with Matt.

Vacation {4th of July}

After a day on the beach, we were invited to my sister-in-law's sister's house for supper. After dark we headed to the beach for fireworks. It was amazing how many were being shot off - an awesome show!!!

Pictures below: Spencer, his cousin & Grant; Matt; Hunter helping Spencer & Grant shoot off fireworks; the group under the tent watching fireworks.

Vacation {random shots}

Playing pool in the house; Spencer by the pool; Grant in the pool...

Vacation {out to eat}

For some reason, after supper one night (at the Gulfstream Cafe), we took a ton of pictures outside. Most of these are Spencer and his friend Grant. There is one of myself with Matt's 19-year-old niece. I hate this picture...just makes me look old.

Vacation {the car ride}

So, I'm more than a month behind getting vacation pictures posted...oh well. Here are a few silly shots from the car ride down there... Spencer took a friend with him this year.

Getting Close!

It's hard to believe, but the charity crop I've been planning for the last few months is only two days away (see link to the left)!! I am taking tomorrow off to knock out details and starting setting things up. Saturday is the big day. I'm very excited!!

I am behind on editing, journaling and posting photos. Once this event is over, I hope to catch up. Matt also has to work a ton next week, at night, so I will be able to knock out some tasks most probably.

Wish us luck - hopefully we'll make lots of $$$ for the foundation :)

Movies

Last night, we went with my sister's family to the movies. The two girls went to see Hairspray. It was quite funny, silly of course, but definitely funny. Lots of music and dancing - so if that's not your thing, skip it. I liked the music. It also had a bit of a moral story as well.

The boys, on the other hand, went to The Simpsons Movie. They seemed to enjoy it.
