Water Balloons

... throwing them at mom

... throwing them in the air

... rolling them down the driveway and running to catch them

... the life of the younger brother

...his revenge throw

I bought the Bunch O Balloons and we just did a third of them along with regular water balloons. The boys quickly found out they could squeeze them and make the water come out the opening for spraying someone or drinking the water.

Treasure Rocks

I buried jewels in baking soda. They had to use vinegar to find them...or just stomp on them when they got tired of that :) We've had a lot of fun with baking soda and vinegar this summer.

Tippecanoe County Fair

The end of a mirror maze. 

This was a fave of both of theirs.

I FINALLY got Macen on a ferris wheel. He enjoyed watching everything below us.

They got huge corn dogs and ended the night with some ice cream. 

Bike Rider

Finally! He's riding without training wheels. He was so proud (and so was I) and its all he wants to do now.

A Perfectly Relaxing Weekend

After a rough week after our trip to MO, we needed a low key relaxing weekend. We didn't leave the house and it was exactly what we needed. The boys spent time in the sprinkler, playing in shaving cream (one of our summer time faves), enjoying homemade ice cream, playing Super Mario Bros and riding their bikes.

Happy 4th Birthday Maddox!

Hard to believe this little guy is 4 already! 

He was so excited to get a "stuffs".

After swim lessons, we headed to McDonalds (again) for his birthday dinner.

McDonald's Birthday Party

Maddox was very excited to have a party with his cousins. He talks about them a lot since we moved and misses seeing them. So cousins combined with McDonalds was pretty awesome for him!
