Singing in the rain...

Every so often, even though it is my goal EVERY single day, I get the chance to take my favorite 2 year old and spend some quality alone time with him. Last night we simply played in puddles, or as Drew calls them, lazy rivers.  We sang "singing in the rain" and "rain drops keep falling on my head", and couldn't have had a more amazing time! Love that little guy!

Here are a few snapshots of Silly D.

Playing at Jonah's House

Playing at Jonah's house is always fun. They have a movie theatre, a pirate ship playground in the back yard, a 300 ft dock leading out to lake butler, as well as a pool with a little lazy river!  Getting the boys to leave there is always the hardest part about our trip to our buddy's house.  Between the 4 adults that always hang out, we have 8 boys and 1 girl!!!  How much fun is that!

Shhhhhhhhh

It's just about Birthday Party planning time over at my house!  So that means a Bday photoshoot for his invites. Shhhhhh. I don't usually share these before the invites go out. BUT this year we are really downsizing and just inviting a few best buds to go camping at Fort Wilderness.  Stay tuned for Drew's pics coming soon!!!

Evan's Star Wars Room

I apologize in advance for my cell phone pictures....

Trust me, Star Wars is not my first choice as far as room themes go. But what are ya gonna do. This stage isn't gonna pass soon. Evan has been a Star Wars fanatic now for almost two years, and I don't see him growing out of it any time soon.  So as I took down all his cars, trucks, planes and boats to move them over to Drew's new big boy room, I shed a small tear as I put all the Star Wars paraphernalia up. They just don't make classy Star Wars stuff for kid rooms. But classy is not a requirement for 4 year old rooms. Tacky, Darth Vader decals are all the rage man.

Fourth of July with the Loziers!!!

We had such a wonderful holiday with our buddies Kevin and Lawson!!!! Swimming, grilling out, sparklers...and great company!!!!

Oh Charlie!!!

Charlie ended up in the lobster tank at a local seafood shop the other day. Evan was tossing him up in the air and before I could say "nooooooooo" he landed straight in the tank. I was just happy they didn't make me buy all 100 or so lobsters!!!! I grabbed Charlie, and the boys, meema grabbed her scallops she came for... And we bolted before they changed their mind! Plus we had to give Charlie a bubble bath!

Finally!!!

I am sure you are all happy we finally got our new countertops!!! Because now you don't have to hear me talk about it any more. It's done!!! We have only been looking at granite now, intensely looking, for 6 months and discussing it for at least 3 years!!!! But I think it all paid off, love the outcome!

here is a before picture. Bleck.

ahhhh... and after again.
