4th of July

We got a lot done this weekend.... But it sure seemed to fly by. Austin and Eric moved the nursery over to the new house. All it needs now is a baby and either pink or blue. Austin and Kain's toy benches were also moved over.
And we found a table and chairs.. so again Austin and Eric were hard at work.
Austin really liked helping Eric put everything together and using all his tools.

After a long day of moving we headed over to our friends 4th of July Party on Ave. E. right near the beach. It was really fun. I bought a cherry cheesecake.
Who says you can't drink beer at 7 mo... (just kidding) I'm not really drinking it!

Games

Austin won


We walked to the beach


It was so amazing out today and tonight. We still have our windows and doors open. (while we listen to all the fireworks)

The beach was packed!
Austin got to play with some sparklers that Travis brought.
He really liked that!
What a fun, (long) day! The boys are fast asleep, not a peep came out of either of them when we put them to sleep!
Have a great week!

We've got bunk beds!!!

We had a window of 1-4p today. So after work we had lunch, stopped at the store and rushed over to the house so we didn't miss it. By almost 4p, we found out the driver had a flat tire and the time was pushed closer to 6-7p. Ugh, the disappointment. So we ran home, got a blanket, some pillows a DVD player a few good movies, stopped at the store for a pizza, pizza cuter and ice cream and headed back. It was 7pm and the door bell finally rang. OOOH, the excitement! Ice-cream and a movie, what can be better?
So the reason you see this photo is because right when they arrived, the sprinklers went off. The guys were saying, "I'm soaked" but I had no idea how to turn them off. They were really soaked too. I think the sprinklers were moved and the direction they were pointing were right towards to the front gate and the front door. Needless to say, my beautiful wood floors.... :(
Here we go.
Austin and Kain in Awe.
Dancing around the front room. They were so excited to see the finished product.

Here they are. Kain was ready to get in and fix his blankets... we have the mattress back home still.

TA DAH!

We have a Pre-School Graduate!

We are so proud of Austin. He was SO excited to graduate pre-school. When he woke up in the morning (at 5am) all he sang was, "Go Austin, Go Austin". The phrase stuck in my head all day-and put a smile on my face every time I thought about it.

Austin and his best Buddy, Cody!

Bright night
When Kain saw Austin, he started yelling his name, "Hey Aussie" "Aussie". It was so cute. He loves his big brother!
He was all smiles.!
Ms. Beth talking about Austin and when she says, "Austin, what would you like to be when you grow up"...... watch the video and listen to what he says.
CONGRATULATIONS AUSTIN!!
#1 Grad and his little brother.
