JULY

Lets do this!  Preparing ourselves for a LONG day of driving. (usually 17 hours)

Stop for fuel!

We were making good time but I was so tired from the week of crazy travel.  We ended up stopping for the night in Gainsville.  Just couldn't go on.  Also, had the battery light indicator turn on in OK which added some stress. Got it taken care of when we got home - a new alternator was required.  

When we got home we found bananas on the banana tree in our backyard. 

Stocked up on books and ready for a week of resting, well at least I am ready to rest.

Their first library cards!

Catching up with swimming lessons.  Now we have three blue fins.  

It's nice to have them all in one class.  I know Christian is happy!

They don't always look like twins anymore, especially being a girl and a boy but today they just happened to look like twins again.

The girls have started reading the magazines in the check out aisle.  All is fine until I start getting asked questions.  "Why is Brad single again, Mom?"

When it rains, we get so many snails! Snail trails.

They have been a bracelet making factory this summer.

Visit to the eye doctor.  No glasses for anyone!  Still hoping they get Daddy's vision.  They looked like the Three Blind Mice.

Summertime naps...

and a lot of swimming!
