Summer Fun

The boys have been lovin' summer so far.  We've spent several days at the aquatic center already and they are little fish.  One of these times we'll remember to take our camera along with us.

The pool does wear the boys out quite well.  Ethan literally was standing up and fell over onto this chair asleep after our first day at the pool.  Nice!

We also attended our first parade of the season.  Scandinavian Days in Story City is always a nice little parade.  Crystal, Klaire, Emmie, and Parker went with us.  We had such a fun day!






On Monday, the boys moved up to the Bumblebee classroom at ACPC.  Since it was their "first day of school" as a Bumblebee, I attempted some pictures.  They weren't exactly in the picture taking mood at 6:45 am, but at least we tried.





The boys continue to love the park by our house, asking every night if we can go there.  They have become quite the monkeys and scare the daylights out of the other parents.  Meanwhile, I calmly sit on the bench and read the newspaper, telling the parents "Ahw, they're boys!" :)
Finally, they scored big today!  Ethan, Grammy, and myself went to IA City for a prism check for Ethan.  Incidentally, everything looked great today and we don't have to go back until July!  Hooray!  I always drive past this GIANT consignment store every time we go there.  So today was the day to stop...and good thing we did.  We found these toys and the boys just went crazy over them.  Grammy bought them each and early birthday present today.  How many hours to you think they'll spend circling the back patio now??
