It's summer! :) :( :/

We have the week off as far as summer acitivities go. So the boys have taken to tackling and annoying each other as their favorite past time. Arg. This week I am regretting not putting Jacob in the summer preschool program. At least that would keep them apart for a couple hours each morning. Plus, Fred has school on Mondays and Wednesdays, so those are really long days and bedtime can be real challenging. You'd think I'd have enough practice by now, but things still go wrong some nights.

Gavin's other trick he's doing lately is jumping off of everything. You have to be alert at all times as you never know when he's going to jump at you. He really likes to jump onto anyone laying on the floor, which most often is Jacob. Then there is the retaliation and the fun just continues.

We celebrated Isaac's (my sister's) birthday with him at Chuck E Cheese on Saturday and then headed to Paynesville to celebrate Jared's (Fred's sister's) gradutaion with him. Jacob enjoyed both parties - lots of playing and Chuck E Cheese and lots of trampoline jumping at the graduation. On Saturday night Fred and I went out to St Rosa and hung out with some friends and my sister and her friends.

Despite being very tired on Sunday we did get the boat cleaned up and put in the lake. Jacob got to play with Maddie and Isaac at the lake for a while and they had a great time. They made it look like the water was warm, but it was not and there were a few leeches that latched onto the kiddos' feet. Yuck!

We are headed back to Melrose this weekend to spend more time at the lake. Oh, and celebrate father's day with our dads.
