Last Play Date

 Ethan and I enjoyed our last Play Date with our friends this summer.  We can't wait until next summer to do it all over again!

Since it has been so hot outside lately, we set up the bounce house in the living room!

Everyone giving hugs!

Backyard Porch

Aaron built this deck for our backyard last summer, but we are really enjoying it this summer. We play out on it all the time. This is where we eat our popsicles!! We have also been working on our "colors" with Ethan while we enjoy our popsicle. We always ask him what color he wants! Sometimes we hear the ice-cream man and splurge for "real ice-cream." :)












We went to the JBF (Just Between Friends) Sale and bought two outdoor playsets for the backyard. We put them together and Ethan has already tested them out.

Popsicles

Since this summer has been so hot we haven't been able to enjoy the outdoors until later in the evening. Our routine is to play for awhile in the backyard and then have popsicles before it gets too dark. Ethan loves to drink the melted popsicle. He even shares them with Dixie and Rylee. They enjoy them too since it's so hot! The good thing about this routine of ours is that we can still continue it once school starts back up since we've been having to wait to go outside once the sun goes down.
