Last of the Summer

Well, it's not technically summer since my sister and her kids came on the first day of school for Olivia...but these are summer-like activities.  And since Isaac had such a staggered start with K, it was still like summer.

So. Kids eating. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They are all getting bigger!

 Backyard fun! They kept running in from the back tree line. I believe right after this picture was taken, Logan and Elias were crying because of a collision. Oops.

 Justin took some time to spray them as they ran by.

 ...and when they got close.

 G&G came over to watch the gang while Tara and I got to do some shopping for our new house (more pics to come in later post).  Looks like Legos were the hit. Thanks Gramp & Nana for saving all J's legos from when he was a kid!

 There were different variations of outfits throughout the 5-day visit. My kids don't dress up much until Logan and Connor come. It's definitely funny to see what they come up with!

 My kids discovered their favorite trees while the cousins were here. I wonder why they picked these?

 The next few are just more outsideness.

 ...done all in love of course...

Me and sleep pictures. I liked this one. Yes, maybe when he's three he'll get a real bed. But for now, this works...kinda. And in case anyone was wondering...our old neighbor Sherry made the custom pillows for the boys! Thanks a million!!

 Olivia managed to get strep throat for the first time in her life. So she stayed home from school and we had to have something to do. Why not paint yourself?

 All the pictures we made had to have our hands, fingers, knuckles, or fists in the picture somehow. 

 One day after "Kindergarten camp". Head under bed. That rhymes too! 

 The very last day of summer for Isaac before going to school every day, full day. Elias was practicing writing his name. He makes all those lines for "E-L-I-A-S". He spells his name while writing each line. If you click on the pic to make it big, you may be able to see the yellow "elias" with correct amount of lines. Issac is such a good teacher! And thanks new neighbors for the dry erase board!!
