Grant has enjoyed his froggy pool some this summer until the hornets started to run us out of the backyard....Anyhoo, here he is filling up is first little play pool....he loves the water hose and his new word for the summer is "Watey (short for water)" and "Bubbles"

I can't believe it is August and school is starting....where in the world has the summer gone?? We have stayed busy bees as usual this summer but have taken time to really enjoy alot of the simple/little things that life has to offer as well and sharing them all with Grant just makes life that much sweeter! There is too much to really write about so I am going to just start posting pictures in phases to share our summer. Hope everyone has had a great summer. Here is what we have been up to and alot more to come soon. Happy late-summer:)
