We have been having a great summer! The kids have been staying up way to late every night which Ethan really enjoys.We like to go out in our back yard in the evenings when it cools down a bit to swing and jump on the trampoline. It is just fun to hang out together.
We have also been eating lots and lots of Popsicles....
Ethan lost his tooth (the one that has been hanging on for weeks) this morning. Doesn't he look like a 7 year old?
He was really brave and let Erick pull it. I told him the Tooth Fairy would probably be coming tonight to get his tooth. Shortly after that Ethan said, "I think I am going to be rich tonight." I know inflation has made teeth worth much more than they were when I was a kid, 25 cents just does not go as far as it used to!
We have made a trip to Wheeler Farm. I love it there. It was fun to watch Izzie with all the animals, she doesn't remember going, so it was all new to her.
I could not get Izzie to look at the camera for the life of me. She was so excited to be there!
Ethan was great to show her everything, since he is so experienced in going there. When he was younger, we used to live close to the farm and would go at least once a week. It is a great, free place to spend a summer morning or afternoon or day....
We spent Tuesday afternoon/evening at Boondocks. Ethan has been asking us to go and we had a great time! Ethan rode the Go Carts and is a fabulous driver! He was in car #3 and the kid in car #6 would not let Ethan pass him. Well, when the kids were driving back into the parking lot, Ethan snaked in front of the kid and I was so proud of him. He has been paying attention to Erick's driving!
Erick had a blast getting everyone soaking wet in the Bumper Boats!
He is just a big kid...
After they were done with the ride, Erick was pointing out all the grown ups he had soaked, and snickered as he was telling me. What a funny guy, know wonder I love him so much!
Miniature Golf was fun!
Each of us got a hole in one, some of us got 3, but I'm not naming names...(:
Izzie liked holding her ball and club and she made a few good puts of her own.
It is fun to watch kids learn and progress and feel good about themselves. Erick, Ethan & I all made the final Tiki hole shoot out fire, we must all be great golfers.
After we had all the fun we could have, we headed home with some Little Caesars Pizza and Crazy Bread. A dinner made for champions.

Hooray! You could have told Ethan that he just saved you 115 bucks since he didn't have to have it extracted. Therefore his tooth is worth a whole lot more ; ).
