Catching Up

Time to play catch up with blogging. We have been so busy and out of town that I haven't had time to post pics from the 4th or Josh's 31st birthday! To start with on the pictures, these are just some random ones we took of the kids doing their typical summertime activities: pool, playground, bikes, outside play, etc.

So to get started, on July 4th we decided to hang out at the pool for a few hours. We were so surprised to be the only family down there. We had a picnic and a great time enjoying ourselves until it was time to go. Josh got his hat and put it on only to get stung by a yellow jacket! Ouch! Most of us have been stung before but not in our head! It really hurt him for a full 24 hours, he will definitely look next time before putting his hat on outside.
After the pool we went up to Grandmama and Grandaddy's house for a cookout and to celebrate Josh' upcoming birthday. All the kids had a great time playing together and riding their bikes. Josh had a great birthday party and got lots of nice gifts from everybody. We had a fun but exhausting time. We had promised Paxton we would take him to see the fireworks this year but after the pool and several fun filled hours with the family it was getting late and we were all exhausted. Especially the little man who had spent the night with G&G and gotten up at 6:30! We felt bad but we decided we would go next year. We are going to see fireworks next week at Stone Mountain and of course there are tons of firework shows at Disney that we will see in the fall. So it was a happy weekend overall. Stay tuned for pics from our trip to hottest place on earth (can you guess where?).

Little lady in the pool. She loves to hang out on the steps. She could entertain herself for hours here!

I can't get over how big Paxton looks in his close up shot. He definitely looks like a soon-to-be school boy!
