A little of this and a bit of that.

The gang and I are on a mandatory rest before school starts next week. I implemented this hiatus a few weeks ago and while I've been pretty good at maintaining it there have been a few activities on our schedule. Here are a couple of pictures from them :)

We went to the fair with Grandma, gosh, two, maybe three weeks ago. Yikes. Sorry this is so late. Anyhoo, we ate too much and had too much fun.

I don't know why kids love this stuff so much. It's quite ridiculous when there are cream puffs right across the way that would have been $5 much better spent.

Apparently something really interesting was going to our left, as neither child could be bothered with a photo.

Again, something to the left is entrancing.

Harps and Grandma. Thanks for giving my back a little break!

To me, this look says "When I turn 16 all your hair is going to turn white and  you will probably die a small death each time I get behind a wheel to drive because I am trouble with a capital T."

Riding the train. Big shock.

Harper and Zarriah...age 6 1/2 months. Look at Z's hair!! (P.S. This isn't the best angle for H, is it?)

This is better. Oh those cheeks! That's Mom's friend Joan behind her :)

Notice the nuances in this photo: Thatch yelling at the kids behind him that he's going to shoot them with his lasers, Coop with his  turned to the right like a trucker, the kids behind them yelling back at Thatch with them screaming that they're going to shoot them. Sigh, boys.

I wish I could zoom into this so you could see the smile on his face!

Thatch sharing his ice cream.

And there it is...the moment we hit the wall. "NO MORE PICTURES!!!!!" he yelled, emphatically.

Coop was still pretty chill though. He likes ice cream, by the way.

And so does H. 

Here we are, on the way inside church. Luckily, they let us in again.

After church we went to B&N and Thatcher spent all allowance for the first time on...

A shark book!! We read it for bedtime every night of shark week. 

Okay, so here's a random experiment that I found off pinterest (If you haven't joined pinterest it would be best if you never do, it is a time suck.) I am re-growing onioins that I cut already. It was a long shot...

Here's how much they grew in one day!

In the mean time, Jonathan took photos of his lawn. I will admit, it's pretty awesome. Even if we aren't allowed to walk or play on it.

Celebrating Shark Week: Here's the little guy being a shark. He's doing so good at swimming!

We went to a wedding this past weekend and they had cupcakes, red frosted cupcakes. It wasn't quite his color though.

And here are the onions after a week...Crazy!! This is kind of fun!!!

Anyhoo, Friday starts the begining of our regularly scheduled programing...school stuff, OT, library time,  so on and so forth. Fun should ensue.

I hope you enjoyed!!!

Love,
