I'll save the excuses and just cut straight to the photos...
Bryce had a birthday. I can't believe my baby is 2.
He spent some time playing with his new toys.
And then it got hot. Really hot. So we painted the house with water.
Then it got hotter, so we stayed inside and played.
Searching for buried treasure.
Finger painting with pudding.
How many hats can you stack?
Some painting (the tongue is necessary for artistic inspiration).
A little home repair.
Hiding out in the kennel.
Then we had some family photos taken. Bryce is cute.
Then Grammy, Uncle Brian, Aunt Jennifer, Siler, and Caleb came for a visit (and some more family photos).
Running from the water hose is always fun.
So is eating ice cream.
A little trip to the zoo was in order.
Siler's keeping an eye on the tiger pacing behind them.
"I'm getting out of here!"
Three little monkeys...
And of course, we couldn't leave without riding the train.
With that, a cool breeze blew in and our summer came to a close. Let's hope the next one's not so hot.
