Summer Treat

One thing I love about summer is SnoBiz!  With all the kids in tow, it's quite the task to get there, have the treat, and get home, so we haven't been since Mae was born. Arabelle and Bo have been asking, so after I picked them up from camp on Thursday of last week, we went!

We planned to go get school supplies for Bo, but they were very surprised when I took the turn towards SnoBiz!

They have a chair under a tree, so it was a perfect place to enjoy a cool summer treat. :)

Mae was happy to be along and Arabelle was sure to tell her that she can have her own SnoBiz next year.

Girls' picture.....caught Mae mid-spit up.

And an attempted picture of all of us. haha!

Came home after getting Bo's school supplies and played in the backyard to finish the fun afternoon.

Porch Popsicles

We've been making yogurt popsicles lately, just yogurt, milk, and fruit. Pretty tasty! Yesterday afternoon, we grabbed our popsicles and went on the porch. They are a messy treat, so we MUST go outside for them!

I love this one. I can't remember what Arabelle was saying or doing, but she had Bo giggling up a storm!

This is a funny look:

Notice how long Bo's hair looks? Stay tuned for Bo's new style! ;)

Pool Time

I know I post a lot of pool pictures, but that's because we're in the pool nearly every day!

And really, how can I NOT share these!?

Still enjoying her popsicle!

I love how the water looks in this one!

We love summer weather!

Sweet Summertime

We have been enjoying a lot of fresh fruit this summer! The figs are ready now and we walk out there a couple of times a day to snack on the figs and eat a few of the last remaining blueberries. Today, Arabelle asked for figs about 10 minutes after she got out of bed!

"FIGS!!!!"

Bo's favorite is blueberries

"Back to the blueberries, Mom!"

I am impressed with my Zinnias this year! I have always liked my Grandma's Zinnias and thought they would look really pretty there by the drive way. I was right! They are so easy to grow and Arabelle always likes picking one to carry around. :) This picture was about 3 weeks ago. They are already a lot bigger!

Watermelon time!

Papaw's watermelons are ready! We always look forward to this time of the year!

Bo looks pretty excited!

Trying to pick it up

We eat it, Arabelle???

First Try

Not a fan, yet.

This girl LOVES watermelon!

Thanks for all your hard work Papaw......we always enjoy them!

Back yard fun

We spend nearly every afternoon playing out side in the sprinklers/pools. It's been SO hot, so there's not much more we can do. We are thankful to have a big pecan tree in the backyard to provide plenty of shade. Here are a few pictures from Wednesday afternoon.

Trying out the water

Pretty girl

Playing together. :)

She splashed too much, so he got out and crawled to me. I see this view many times each day. 

The Splasher

This looks so funny to me. Bo just stands up! He did take a few baby steps!

 I love this little grin

Then, Arabelle kicked the car. This was the result. 

Arabelle pushed him all around the yard.

Cracks me up!

Check out her shadow....a frog!
