Summer Days

A fast week for A^4 as Mommy is still getting used to the new football routine for the boys.  The is was the last week of the summer program for the kiddos.  They went to the splash pad in Camillus, made lots of crafts, and went to Adam's Eden.  For the next two weeks, the kiddos will go to Linda's before school starts on the 7th,

Cheese!

Addie's shoulder "pads"


TaDa!


Addie's Friday night Smores face!  Addie always seems to end up with food below her mouth and on her chin :)


Addie and Mommy making a new necklace while Daddy and Ayson made a trip to Barber Sam's.


Ayson with his new hair do...a mohawk!
Mommy finally ordered a new batch of ANTS!  The kids (young and old) love to watch the ants move around their new home.




Pretty!  Peaches from PA, tomatoes from the garden, and fruit and ginger from the "tropics."  The kids have been eating lots of hard boiled eggs lately...Mrs Oliver gave us 18 eggs from her chickens...THANKS, Beverly!


Mr Anthony, Addie, Daddy, and Ayson in the pool on Saturday night.  The picture credit goes to Gianna as Mommy was at (another) concert with Grandma Collene and Lulu in Jordan, NY:)


Lulu took this picture of Mommy standing behind Grandma (Mommy is protecting Grandma from collisions from other concert goers :)


Kip Moore (great picture, Grandma!)


Friday was the LAST day of the summer program and the kiddos made tie die T-shirts.  Mommy and Daddy rinsed, washed, and dried the shirts on Saturday so that the kids could wear their creations on Sunday.  Blue and orange colors for Ayson and purple, blue, and orange for Addie.
Man, Ayson sure does look tall in this picture!


It was a rainy day (FINALLY not just a passing shower) on Sunday so we did house chores and the kids played inside and did another Gross Science lab experiment: "Potty Putty"...glue, borax, water and the fun of chemical bonds.
