Well I haven't posted all summer so let me catch y'all up. The boys and I have been super busy this summer. We have play dates every Monday with our girlfriends. Then later in the week on most weeks we play with some other friends. We went to
the Library on Fab Fridays and learned how to make things with string and went to a Harry Potter party were we made fun hats and things. We have been swimming and going to Fun Forest. We play at the park and play outside in the yard. Carter and Dawson have both learned how to ride their bikes with out training wheels this summer and Carter is learning to swim with out floaties. I have really enjoyed my time with them this summer but I am also ready for school to start again so the older boys can get back on a better routine and back talk someone else for a change. Can I get an AMEN!! The boys have gotten to do some new things this summer. They all got to go to Gran-Gran's house individually and do fun things with just h
er. Blake got to go to the lake while he was there and go exploring the 3 acres for birds nests and other cool things in nature and he a Gran-Gran caught a Gopher! He thoroughly enjoyed his alone time. Dawson helped her dig up some bricks and helped work in the yard. He loves to be outside but he misses his brothers so he didn't stay as long. Carter tested out Gran's pitching arm on the freshly mowed baseball field she prepared in the yard just for him. I think that is pretty much all he wanted to do, so that is what they did. Baseball, Ba
seball, and more Baseball!! Also they all got to go to Mamaw's house with Papa John and go fishing!! They all caught a bunch of fish and some pretty big ones. They helped Papa clean the fish and then they fried them and ate them! They have also gone to Grammy and Grampy's house and swam and helped mow the yard and help with yard sales and all sorts of other fun things. They have had a wonderful summer. The only thing we have left to do hopefully before school starts is we are going to try to take them to Splash Kingdom, the new water park in Canton.

This was truly a wonderful summer experience for me as well. I enjoyed each of the boys and I plan to spend time with them again next summer. Of course, since Carter was not happy about missing out on the lake excursions, I will make sure he is included with Blake next year. I certainly had a memorable summer with the boys, and I hope they will want to come spend time with their GranGran every summer.
It sounds like you've had a fun and busy summer. I must admit, though, it took me a second to get past the fact that you've been taking them on dates with girlfriends every week. Are you sure they're old enough for that?
I am so glad to FINALLY see a new post on your blogsite! LOL what cute pics, and I am sorry your boys didn't have enough fun with my kids for them to even be mentioned!
also, AMEN on the going back to school thing!
