August

It rained really hard one day and the boys were stuck inside for a couple hours. As soon as the downpour stopped they got the idea to go get all the water out of the street. They filled up bucket after bucket. Check out Pierce's shorts, I think I rolled them up a bit too high.

Holt's first time on the paddle board.

Camden trying the paddle board, yes in her under ware and life jacket. She had just got up from a nap and couldn't wait to get her bathing suit on. She loved it!

Pierce and Holt took the kayak out in the canal. The next picture isn't very clear but they then decided to tie a tube to the back of the kayak and Pierce was 'trying' to pull Holt behind him. Love their creativity!

The beautiful woman walking down the ramp is my Aunt Patricia who takes vacation every summer to come spend a few nights with us. I think in her hands is a platter with food and drinks she was bringing down the dock. She had just finished working tirelessly in the kitchen to make us all dinner after babysitting Camden all day so I could lay on the beach. She is completed by her husband, a.k.a Uncle Bill ,who is along with Jason is sponsored by Hurley. In all seriousness our summers and Christmas' would not be the same without the time we get to spend with you guys, thanks for making the trip!

I think there favorite thing to do on the paddle board was to try pull their cousin Bill off or to continue to jump off and make him pull them back on.

Love us some Rachel.

I love this picture, Mom Mom playing uno with Camden, I wish I heard the rules for this game.
Camden eating one of Mom Mom's yummy pazelles!

Yes this is my grandmother who decided to try out Pierce's bike. I'm sure I was blamed for this idea but this was all on her own. She really is pretty amazing, she went crabbing with us (only a minor fall), on the beach (a pretend fall- I got in trouble for this one), and on the boat to see goat island.
I wonder what could have them in this trance...

Other fun summer memories...

knock knock jokes, our garden only producing 3 peppers and 2 cukes as the kids call them, Italian ice at the Friday night concerts at oib, playing tennis and baseball in street at beach, always playing together nicely right at bed time, all having to poop at the same time, getting to pick out lunchables one day (you would of thought I gave them $100 to spend at the toy store, it made their day!).
