Next, an update on us. We are really kind of busy. I decided to help a friend sew costumes for her dance classes (which is what I should be doing instead of doing this) and that is fun but there is a lot to do. Sam monitors the temperature to know when he can play in the water (as soon as it hits 80 he starts to beg to go outside).

I realize now there really isn't much to write about. We are enjoying our summer. Hope you are all enjoying yours. Maybe I will take some more pictures soon then I will have something to post. :)

Finally some photos of the nieces and a circus performance by the plethora 2nd Gen

More photos from the lake, and some photos of the girls.

Random photos of the summer 09

Sam is having a great summer - here he is at the local park showing his mad skillz climbing the arm slide.
















Here's Hannah - she's loving being the older sister to Michelle. She teaches her everything she knows, expecially going down stairs and trying to get Dad to do things that she wants him to do.



















Sam and Hannah going down the slide, as seen in the reflection off the pool at the bottom of the slide. (I had to get some artzy photos in here :))



Finally a shot of the little lake near us. We did a dinner with some friends of ours and ended up being rained on, however when we went to the lake we were able to get some cool photos.
