First Day of School

Steve Rodgers..or Jed's 7th birthday

Jed may be Steve Rodgers, A.K.A Captain America's biggest fan, so for his birthday, we had a Captain America birthday party.  Including masks, shields, and awesome cupcakes.  Inside the cupcakes the batter was dyed and make into a camouflage pattern.  The kids could have cared less.  I was excited, but of course, forgot a picture.

 I also made a mask for each of the kids.  Cheap and easy.

 The boys enjoyed wrestling on the trampoline most.

Opening presents

 Cute super hero

 We had 2 games.  One was throwing the shield they finished making, and trying to knock down the bad guys, or as others know them, soda cans.  Grace decorated them wonderfully, with Red Skull on top.

Olivia trying her best to get them.

Summer fun

We have had all sorts of fun this summer.  With grandparents visiting and us going to grandma's it has flown by and school has already started.  Just a few pictures to recap a few of our adventures.

Playing in the rain.  It has rained so little this summer that when it finally did, I didn't make them some inside, and of course my camera batteries died after one shot.

When Grandma Little was here we went on the Celebration Belle for a short cruise.  We were up on the 3 floor, and Olivia lost a flip flop off the boat before we even left the dock.

A little family rock band time. As I was making dinner one night, I turned some music on and the kids decided to sing, play and dance along.  A random, fun, unexpected break.  Jed got creative and taped a spoon to the guitar so he could sing and play at the same time.

Girlies playing with moon sand.  Good thing it is cheap and easy to make, Claire likes to throw it.
