Weekend in Pictures

What a weekend! The warm, I mean HOT summer weather is finally here! Which is nice, it exhausts the kids a little more, they sleep a little sounder....and longer! And the nights are still warm at 11pm.

Saturday we did a little more swimming! Look at my big boy hanging on for dear life.....err I mean swimming all by himself in his little inner tube!!

Christopher did swim....but we didn't get any cute pics of him swimming....but this "how dare you bother me when I am snacking" look was just too good to pass up! He is just a little froggy in the water....we are starting swim classes with both boys at the end of the month....that should prove interesting!

Thomas even loved jumping in from the side....as long as you didn't let him go under he was all set, but the minute that water came up above that mouth/nose level, he. was. MAD!

Sunday we went to see Marie....and her garden! The woman is a plant genius! She is AMAZING! She's my hero when it comes to compost and gardening and all of that. I'll have to do a guest post with "Ask the plant lady" she knows it all....from the nitrogen and hydrogen and oxygen stuff that needs to be in the soil and compost pile to get just the right mixture....it's amazing!!

The hubs is currently in the planning stage of a garden for next year! It's going to be fun!! But take a look at these SUN FLOWERS!! Can we all say HOLY COW??? They are bigger than her house!!!

I mean just look at this sucker! That was bigger than my hand!! AMAZING!! And so gorgeous!

Chloe teaching Thomas all about the garden, she showed me the jalapenos and tomatoes they are growing, she showed me the cucumbers and the squash!

And here's Thomas checking out the compost pile, let's hope when our compost pile gets a little bigger he doesn't take to playing in it!

Then it was time for a little big wheel riding! One of these days they will be playing crash em up I am sure!

We had a great time relaxing outside....enjoying the evening shade and slightly cooler weather....Marie, the hubs, Benny, Christopher, Thomas, and Marie's hubby Greg! What a perfectly relaxing Sunday!

And this is my wonderful picture that Chloe made me, what an artist....she made sure I took it home and it is now hanging on my refrigerator! Thanks Chloe!!

Hang Ten everyone......I hope everyone had a wonderfully relaxing weekend!!

I know what you mean about all this hot weather. It was still over 100 degrees here tonight at 9 PM. There's something wrong with that!
The garden sounds like a fun idea. Love those sunflowers!
