More fun with Lexi and Lucas

We had a swimming party! Lexi loved to jump off the waterfall! If only we could get her to jump out instead of falling in! She loves to swim and has a pretty good kick! Lucas just loves being outside.

A visit with Lexi and Lucas

It was fun visiting Lexi and Lucas over 4th of July! They are so much fun!

Julie Adventures

I love when Julie comes to visit...never a dull moment! We were busy from plane landing to plane taking off! We started with a good night's sleep, for Saturday morning was the Blue Bell ice cream festival! All you can eat ice cream, all day long for $4.00, it was worth it. We spent most of the day eating ice cream and trying to stay cool in the crazy humidity. We managed to do this by eating lots and lots of ice cream! Some of the favs were; blackberry cobbler, peaches and vanilla, triple caramel, just to name a few. Then we headed to the mall for some lunch at Chick-fil-A. Oh the fun doesn't stop there, we ended up donating blood and racing to see who was the fastest (I was of course, except I have soft veins and so the needle went all the way through and I was a concern for a blood clot. The nurse proceeded to take the needle out and stick the other arm! I guess that was initiation for a first timer) But winning the blood pumping contest was worth it! Then we went for pedicures, boy that is nice after being stuck with a big ole needle! Off, to church from there...Finally some R and R for the day. Sunday came and the dogs need baths, so we loaded up all 4 dogs and off to sloppy dog wash we went. After that, we "broke" in to Chick-fil-A and grabbed some ice for the store party (we had to cool the pool somehow) and the afternoon was spent swimming and hanging out with Chick-fil-A friends. Julie and I had a beach ball fight and ended slipping down the slide very gracefully! So, that evening we borrowed the detox machine and detoxed Julie (we had to get all that ice cream out somehow!) Her water was pretty colorful when she was done! I had to distract her by beating her at tetris, which humbly I did very well (he he)! Monday was the Penguin Parade (posted below) That was a fun filled day! Tuesday was kids night where we made 4th of July Airplanes to fly during fireworks... OH yeah! Julie thinks she missed her calling and should have been a mascot, so I dressed her up in the inflatable cow suit and took some pictures. We'll make this her portfolio picture at a later date! Wed. We relaxed and got ready to fly to Phx! It was such a fun weekend, I can't wait until next year when she comes for the ice cream and we can find more penguins!
