Summer Days. . . Oh what fun!

Man we are loving the summer around here. My kids have a hard time staying inside all day, but they aren't very good when I take them places so the winter was a little tough. We are LOVING the summer though! Ayden is so happy to play outside with the neighbors all day long. They come in for a little while and have a snack or watch and show and then they're back outside for some more fun in the sun. We got a little green pool a few weeks ago but Ayden pulled it out of the garage and then my neighbor ran over it with his bike and it popped! So a few days ago I decided to spend the cash and get a nicer one. Its pretty big and it even has a bench in it. The kids love to fun down the hill and take a flying leap into it. And of course I never say no to a day of chillin in my swim suit catching some rays!

I never knew how fun it is to have a house. When we got married we lived at my parents house for 2 years where we didn't really have any friends. Then we moved next door and mostly hung out with my family. Then we moved to the apartment in SL. (which we called a ghost town most of the time) Now we live in this awesome neighborhood where at any given time (especially in the evening) people will be out in their yards or out walking and more then happy to stop and visit with you. We have made so many friends and we feel so comfortable here. And that always reassures us that this really is the place we are supposed to be. We just love it here!
