Summer time fun...

We we've had some adventures the past couple of weeks....

We went boating with Rozy & Boys, and Bomma/Bompa, Grandma Dorothy and Leesee-lala and Jordan... Conner and I went on the tube and well, we got bucked out...mommy tipped us both over backwards...he wasn't quite sure how he felt about that, but he remembers it and tells people about how the tube flipped us over and how he was wearing his lifejacket....then he helped Rozy drive the boat and flipped mommy out of the tube. He is pretty proud of himself for that

We saw Cars on opening day and again this last week with the kids at Bomma's house. He loves Lightening McQueen and Mater (for non-Cars folks, that is the red car and the tow truck you see in the previews). He notices them at every store. He got a few of the Cars from McDonalds Happy Meals but we are still looking for anything McQueen or Mater related...too bad so is every other mom out there. I didn't realize it could be so popular...but it really is marketing genius. Make a movie about Cars that is even mediocre and then sell the merchandise because what little boy doesn't love toy vehicles of any kind, made even better by watching a show about them.

As for fireworks, well, Conner thinks they are great fun....he especially liked throwing the little poppers at people's feet. He wasn't a fan of the loud noises of the big ones so we watched them in the car. But he loved the little ones that we did at Bomma's house.
