Saturday Morning Painting

We have had a nice slow moving morning, so when Adie asked if she and Cal could paint, I agreed.  They are loving every minute of it.  Jeff is working this weekend and Tim and Kim are taking the kids for the day.  That leaves me with a day for myself.  What to do....what to do??  I'm sure I'll manage to find something!

Storytime at the library

This morning Jeff, the kids and I met up at the library with Michele, June and Jillian.  The kids (even the big kid Jeff) had fun making a paper snake after the story and songs.  I enjoyed getting some baby love while the kids worked on their crafts.  For the record, the "auntie" mentioned on Jilly's shirt is referring to her Auntie Lindsey :)

Needing a Nap

Cal is resting after a crazy morning. He fell asleep with his "snake" craft from the library.

Bedtime Reading

After getting Callum to sleep I came in to read with Adie and this is what I found.  She wanted to help all her stuffed animals get to sleep by reading "Little Women" to them.  Sweet girl.

Sleeping....and waking up.

Callum fell asleep with his favorite purple dinosaur at Nate and Michele's house.  He looked way too sweet not to snap a picture. 

Then, today as Cal was waking up from his nap Flint found his way into his crib.  This is a big no-no so of course I first snapped a picture then scolded the poor puppy.  (he actually got put in the crib by Jeff and knew he was doing something wrong....so I didn't yell too much)  Callum sure thought it was pretty neat!

Fourth of July

After returning from our big family reunion in Lincoln, we prepared for a little barbecue at our house with some of our favorite people. Cait and Joel, the Sullins family and Aunt Lyn stopped by for some good food and fireworks. I made a strawberry pie and got all festive with the decorations on it. I was proud of myself!

Pool Time!

Yesterday afternoon the kids enjoyed a little time in the pool.  Callum has become fearless in the water as of late so we got him a new swim ring to allow him a little more freedom.  It helped so much!  He had a great time!  Adrianne always has a great time in the pool, but with new friends/cousins she had an extra fun time. 

After pool time we headed to my Uncle Lyle's church for a family game night.  Adie and Cal wore themselves out in the gym while Jeff and I played "the game of things" with a group of cousins. 

We had a great time, and slept great.  Now we are making our way home to prepare for a BBQ at our house.  I can't wait for the fireworks!

Johnson Reunion

We made it to Lincoln,NE this morning for the Johnson Family Reunion. We were forced to take a detour through Kansas due to the flooding in NW Missouri, but we made pretty good time.

Adrianne is having a blast with all of her cousins, and Callum has been a pretty good boy!
