Summer Fun

Jacob & Dallin went to a Round Rock Express game, just the two of them.  We learned last summer that Zach does not enjoy going to sporting events, so that will probably become something that Jacob & Dallin can do together.

 

 We didn't get to swim much this summer.  Landon was sick for almost 3 full weeks of the summer, we went on vacation, and had day camp at our house for 2 weeks.  For most of the summer Landon hated going in the pool, so that made it extra difficult.  I figured out that it was because of the life jacket and floaties that he didn't enjoy it.  I bought him a Puddle Jumper life jacket and he loves being in the pool now.  It is much less bulky, and he can swim on his own.  Next summer we'll get to the pool much more.

We did go once as a family though, when some friends invited us over for a BBQ.

 Connor made sure that everyone there watch him do his backstroke.

 

 

 

 This is for the kids to remember.  Jacob talked me into buying a $1 Phineas & Ferb jello mold.  We ate a lot of Jello Jigglers this summer.

 Jacob got to be on the Boy Scout end of an Arrow of Light ceremony, welcoming one of his friends to 11-year-old scouts.

Towards the end of June Dallin came back with the kids from the creek with a water bottle full of tadpoles.  They were super tiny, but grew really fast.  The kids liked watching them grow legs before we released them in the lake when we went on vacation.
