Summer Fun

Started in July for our family. We had so much rain in June that we were stuck indoors. Thank goodness that my boys like playing video games but they did get bored after a while. I'm not much for staying at home all the time. Unless I have chores to do. Now that it is July and the weather is hot with no rain we can go out more. We've been going to the pool, spray park and indoor play places with our friends. We have a playgroup with about 7 families that get together 2-3 times a week. If we aren't outdoors we take turn going to a house for playtime/lunch. It's been fun for the kids and Mom's. The Mom's are enjoying the girl talks. Plus, we are learning to cook different dishes from one another. My turn is coming up soon. I'm going to make some Thai food. The boys have seen some good movies this summer. So far, Nicholas favorite movie is the "Transformers".

Scroll down and check out some new post on our blog. We hope that everyone is having a great summer!

We have a new family that moved into our ward and they speak french. Christine is on the left with the green cup and she is from France. She showed us how to make crepes for lunch. We had stuffed crepes with mushroom, onions and white creamy sauce. The crepe batter was made with fresh parsley. The dessert crepe was plain but we each got to fill it with chocolate, bananas and whatever we wanted to put on it. It was a light and delicious meal. We were at the Parson's house and they are bunny sitting for somone. If you make this picture big you can see a picture of the rabbit on the computer. He looks like Cujo.
Eric has been playing a lot with his new toys. This leapfrog music and learning table has been fun for him and Carter. You can learn to count and sing the alphabet in english or spanish. This playhut is very popular with the boys. Nick added our green tunnel to the tents. It's fun watching the boys play. Thanks for this cool gift Jason & the Michael's.

Those tents are great! Our kids would take all the cushions off the couch and make tents. I like your tents better.
