HOT days of summer!

Scott and Daniel spend most mornings outside together. This morning I snapped them working on the driveway trim. But, most mornings they are all over the yard...watering plants, weeding, trimming, moving things around...ya know "men's work".

Mercedez spent a large part of the day painting the picnic tables. Michael sanded them all dwown and helped with the painting too. Scott built a makeshift tent to cover the picnic table(which has to be in the shade to be painted). Scott laughed at it...but it works:) Very neat!



We spent the afternoon playing at the pool (just perfect for hot days!). This picture is what I would call "outnumbered" but he still can't be sunk:)

I have some great flippers in my family! It is amazing to me, crazy to watch my fearless and wonderful crew enjoy the pool! Surprisingly, of all the following pictures....ALL ended in upright and feet first into the water!




Making his flipping debut...Seth who chose a style all his own and had it down pat from the first try!
