76 degrees and LOVIN it...


These two boys have been such a joy...They are so fun to hang out with. Life is easier when we are able to get outside and enjoy the weather. Winters here are hard...it is hard being stuck inside all the time. Now that summer has started life seems easier for me and the boys. We don't get so irritated at each other and feel a sense of freedom when we can get out. :)
This is Gavin's club house. We got a new energy efficient dryer and this is the box it came in. Gavin claimed it as his club house and plays in it everyday.
This is for you mom and dad. Here is our siding. :)
Tanner enjoyed playing hide-n-seek with Gavin. They would chase each other in and out of the club house.
Gavin loved playing in the pool today. I was surprised that he got went since the water is so cold. He would not have done that last summer! :)
Tanner LOVED having control of the water while it was on. Gavin ran through it and would scream every time and Tanner thought it was hilarious b/c he thought he was getting his big brother. :)



We've had so much fun today. Early this morning i had a photo shoot with a 4 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. They were dolls. They did such a wonderful job. Taking pics of kids is very hard, but they made it easy for me. The little girl actually LIKED posing for the camera and stayed in the positions that i put her in. WONDERFUL! The little boy was a little uneasy, but his mom was able to get a lot of smiles out of him.


After that, Auntie Holly and i and the boys went to the zoo. I was supposed to meet up with some friends, but when we were half way there i realized that i forgot the cell # my friend gave me so that i could find them since i would be late... dang it. Anyway, i ended up seeing one of them on the way out of the zoo. :) It was so hot today. I was actually HOT!! It was an amazing feeling. :)


Then we came home and let the boys play in the pool. They LOVED it. They had so much fun. The water was freezing and it took their breath away quite a few times, but it was so fun watching them.


Shane came home and we barbequed outside and then he and i went on a date at 7:30, after the boys went to bed. We drove around almost the entire time on the motorcycle. I LOVE riding on the motorcycle with him. Now that it is warm out we will definitely enjoy many more rides this summer! We also went to OUTBACK steakhouse and Holly hooked us up with food and it only cost us $5.00...can't beat that for a date! :)


I got burned, and when i saw Holly at outback she was extremely red...that was the only negative of the day. It has been so nice and i am looking forward to many more nice days this summer! :)

Goodness girl! You guys were busy! We just got back from Time Out for Women! My mom wants to bring you with us next time...it is AWESOME! (I agree with her! It would be so fun!)

The house looks great! The pics of the boys in the pool reminded me of Gavin and Jocelyn in that pool last summer when the water was freezing and they both were shivering! I have the video of them to send you!
