Random Summer Pictures
We've been busy, which means I've been busy taking pictures, but haven't gotten them all uploaded.
The last Saturday of July was the day we attended the Our Lady of Guadalupe Family Picnic. Matthias had his face painted right before we left and loved it. He kept it on for all of Sunday and was very disappointed when it started to come off.
Matthias after a fun day of Don Bosco Camp. He is a boy who is definitely having a wonderful time.
Last Saturday we finally had a day at home without big plans. So we spent the morning doing house work and yard work. Grant was so patient with the little boys who were totally enthralled with the weed wacker, wanting to know what it was and how it worked. So he took some time to show them how it worked, without turning it on.
Grant and I ran some errands, spent some wonderful time together just the two of us and then went to Reconciliation before heading home for a relaxing evening at the bon fire pit. The boys thoroughly enjoy the bon fire and marshmallow roasting.
Grant wielding two sticks at once; being the cool almost 13yr old that he is.
Parker laying on his belly to get away from the heat that was "killing" him
I guess he found a way to sit up
Brad finally got him the worlds longest roasting stick so he could stay as far away as possible and still roast his marshmallows. Notice how far back he's standing and still has his marshmallow in the fire.
Augustin is getting quite good at getting his own marshmallows roasted
Samuel enjoyed carrying his marshmallow around and then eating it slowly off the stick; I do think he ate more grass than marshmallow though

You know, I just love that red hair!!
Great pictures! I just love having boys - so funny about the longest roasting stick - ha! Love the little one reading in his chair!! My Thomas is almost 13 and sounds a lot like your Grant. I love that Grant was so patient with the little ones - and them all being so interested in a weed wacker! That's a boy for ya!
