Summertime Fun

Hello all. Well, unfortunately summer is half over already. We have had alot of rain and mega mosquitos here. To my liking, cooler temps. I cannot stand the heat anymore, and am not suppose to be out in the sun much, so this is my kind of weather. Anyway, we have had a busy summer, last week Jodi, myself and the boys went to tinker town. We spent 4 hours there and the boys had a fantastic time.
In this picture, Ian is riding with his friend Stephanie in one of the cars. They look like an old married couple, nattering at each other. We spent a wonderful afternoon there as always. The boys had a grand time and the weather was just perfect.



In this picture, Devin and Ian are driving a car together. It was funny watching Devin, cause he was steeringaround the corners and curves like he had been driving for years already. Ian was freaked out by the ridesto begin with, until Jodi took him on the merry-go-round, then he relaxed and went on everything and morethan once.








Devin has been spending lots of overnights with Grandma and Papa. Everytime I have days off, he spends anovernight or 2, and he flips out when he has to go home. We really enjoy his time here and I find it lonelywhen he goes home.
In this picture, Devin is playing our new Wii. He is playing Mario Kart, a driving game. This child isreally into xbox, wii and computer games. I am amazed how he navigates around the menus without being able to read. Amazing.





Yesterday we went to Fun Mountain. That was a riot. Ian did not like the water slides, but I think mostly because his first time down he ended up turning backwards and going head first half way down. Then we tried taking him down with Jodi or I and he ended up screaming all the way down. So he just hung out on the side of the pool, in the hot tub or in Jodi's arms. Devin had an absolute blast. He went down and up and down and up hundreds of times. He loved it. He hit the bottom, went under, came up with a mouth full of water, spit it out and headed up the hill again. By later in the day he had mastered slowing himself down by the time he got to the end, and then did not even go under water. He even did pretty good getting in line. We had a great day and hopefully will get back there before the end of summer again.
Well, this is it for now. Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer. Will blog again soon.
