It's Been a Busy Summer

This summer seems like it has flown by so far. We have been having a blast!

Canada Day was spent with family complete with smores over a fire and fireworks. If Joshua is asked how he likes his marshmallow cooked, he replies "like a smore!"...there is no such thing as a plain marshmallow to him. If chocolate and graham crackers do not follow, it is not a marshmallow.

We took the boys camping with Chris' parents for 3 nights and they loved it. They had fun playing at the beach and going on bike rides. Joshua and I spent an entire hour and a half feeding chipmunks. He patiently waited a half hour for one chipmunk to show up who he named Bautista after his favourite ball player. The second chipmunk that came around was then named Get Up Ball. Needless to say, Joshua is a huge sports fan. While we were camping we visited a small zoo which was full of excitement. The boys loved getting to feed some of the animals.

Feeding the animals!

We also spent some time with Chris' cousin while she was here visiting with her kids. The boys had so much to do and 2 friends (or as we call them cousins) to do it with. This is the weekend Joshua learned how to ride his bike without training wheels and Grayson learned how to ride a glider bike.

Look at him go!!

This summer has also been busy with Chris' softball. His team plays weekly and they have been in a few tournament. The boys and I enjoy going to the diamond to watch, where they practice their swing with their toy bats. Grayson also loves to stand behind the home plate and yell "Dada" as loud as he can...he gets so excited! Chris is pretty lucky to have his own personal cheerleaders!
