Boys love to Swim!!

Alex and Evan love to swim!!  Alex started taking swimming lessons when he was 2 1/2 years old and Evan started when he was 2 years old.  Their swimming has improved so much this past summer.  They are like little fish in the water!!

 Alex doesn't go swimming without his goggles

 Evan ready for the big jump to daddy

 go Evan!!

 this year we let Alex start jumping off the diving board. He could jump off 100 times in a row and never get tired

 my little swimmer

 I didn't get a picture of the boys jumping off the diving board but even Evan wanted to jump to Daddy.  We were cheering for Alex when he was jumping so when Evan got on the board he said "cheer for me."  So cute!!

not ready to take off their goggles so they wore them getting their bath

Daddy goes to the Children's Museum

It has been so hot in Phoenix so we try to do activities indoors. We asked the boys where they wanted to go and they said the Children's Museum.  This was Wes' first visit and it was the most crowded I have ever seen it there!! 

 Daddy and Evan waiting for the flying handkerchiefs

 Wes went through the jungle gym with the boys.  He had no idea that it had a lot of tiny places for kids to crawl in. 

 Wes trying to get through the maze. I was laughing so hard!!  It is easy for the kids to go through this but not a grown man

 The first time we took the boys to the Children's Museum Alex was 2 years old.  Now he is so grown up!

 When we left the Children's Museum we headed over to the baseball stadium for lunch

the boys had fun walking around the stadium.... I think we be taking them to a baseball game soon!!

Dinner with Katie and Judy

Judy came in town to help Katie pack up and move back to St. Louis. We are so sad to see Katie leave. We have enjoyed spending time with her over the past 6 years and the boys love her!!  But we know she will visit and we wish her lots of luck in St. Louis.

 we went to Abby's house for dinner with Judy and Katie

 the boys loved playing at Logan's water table

 I can't believe this little guy is ONE!!

 Alex and Evan love their little cousin

 my boys!!

 saying good-bye to Katie

big hugs for Katie.....we will miss you!!

July Staycation!!

We love going to the JW Marriott and we found a weekend that we didn't have any plans so we thought it would be fun to have a July Staycation.  The Larrabee family joined us for the weekend and Abby and Logan came to hang out with us on Sunday.  We had a great weekend!!

 Evan loves the lazy river
