More Summer Fun!

Well, it's been an awesome summer so far. We've scanned some of our favorite as-of-yet-unposted pictures below. Enjoy!

A few of Brant and Spencer wrestling at Bishop's house.

When Brant was setting up Spencer's bed, he called Spencer in to help. Spencer took one look, then turned around and ran, saying he'd be right back...turns out he had to go get his hardhat :)

Unlike Spener, Gavin LOVES to eat. This time, he ate so long he just fell asleep in the chair...without letting go of his cookie.

We have tile throughout our house and only two spots having padding--the rug in the living room and the play mat in Spencer's room. Needless to say, Gavin's knees are often found in one of those two locations.

One of our favorite features of the house is how low the windows go, because Gavin loves to look through them and see what's going on outside. Here, Brant is attempting to somehow save our lawn from the drought this summer...a losing battle, unfortunately.

Brant's parents gave Gavin a swing for his birthday and he loves it!

This one is classic. Shelley and Paul and the kids came up for dinner from Houston the other day. After dinner, the kids wanted us to come outside with them, so Shelley ingeniously thought of a game that appeals to all. How it works is the kids try to run from tree to tree without getting hit by a ball thrown by the two fathers. We'd call it 'hit-a-kid', but something about that just doesn't sound like wholesome family entertainment (which it was--the kids LOVED it).

This was one of our wardrobe boxes that we shipped our clothes in. We were about to throw it away when someone had the bright idea to turn it into a 'spaceship!' Spencer played with it for a solid two weeks until it was just taking up too much space.

We're having an awesome summer here in Texas. Now, if it would only rain...
