Risking my life...to blog.

It's dark in here. It's scary. It smells....bad. It's sticky. There's mess and mayhem every square inch. I'm afraid and yet, I've gone where no woman, no civilized woman, should ever go. I see things...well, things my eyes should not see.

I am in......

I am in my son's bedroom. On his computer.

Because mine is sick and won't be back for another week yet.

And I can't stand it. I must blog. (Although oddly enough during this blogging hiatus I discovered I can actually keep a clean house? Who knew!?!)

So here I sit, risking nausea, infectious disease, and who knows what else to bring you the below pictures. Enjoy!

Getting ready to get squirted with the hose by Evan.




At the water park with Nonnie.

These were my camp helpers from church. Wonder if I could get them to move in with me!


Our "triplet" Van joined us one day at camp. Yay! My aunt and cousins live in Anaheim, CA and sent us this Disney care package: shirt, ears and Micky Mouse himself! (Evan again with the great photography skills!)
At the Lake for some July 4th festivities.
Austin and Logan both went jet skiing for the first time.


Pictures for their 1 year anniversary home!

My brother Brian playing with Austin. Check out the cute Monkey Nonnie made for the boys. Logan is really attached to his!

ha ha. I remember posting a while back about having to venture into my 12 year old sons bedroom/hovel. Teenage boys rooms are very scary places, you never know what you may find ... or what may find you.

It was definitely worth your catching an infectious disease and feeling ill to blog. The pictures are gorgeous.
