we love summer!
cool mornings....days at the park...fishing...visiting area attractions...staying up late...eating outside...having "campfires" in our yard...going to the creek...going out for ice cream...catching tadpoles...going swimming...having ralph home more...meeting friends...riding bikes...going to the river....we love it all! and we've done it all, plus some!
we've been outside so much that i haven't been speding much time at the computer, which explains why i haven't posted any pictures for a long time! one of the cool things we did recently was catch a bunch of tadpoles at the creek...we brought them home and i set up our small aquarium and we have been watching them turn into frogs...within 2 days we had about 4 frogs and so far we have released 19 frogs back into the creek....we still have one big bullfrog tadpole who can't seem to find his legs yet...elli named all of the tadpoles and we made a poster with all of the names...here are some of them: glittery, taco, karen, clara, ess, tomato, brick, butterfly, sal, chip, double u, and a snail named shase...we have all had a lot of fun watching the metamorphosis..
below are a whole bunch of pictures of the kids having fun!

OH what fun times! I LOVE summer.
Thanks for the tadpole idea, we're going to have to give that a try. Madeline is absolutely fascinated with bugs and fish right now. She'd love the experience.
Hey isn't that purple polka dot swimsuit the best? Madeline can still wear hers this year too - 2 years out of one suit is pretty amazing :)
Wish we could be there to have some excursions together
