June

So. I have decided that I take a lot. And I mean a. lot. of photos. But that is good for me because I have a terrible memory and photos help me to remember things.

But this means there are a lot of photos that I am going to put on here. Until I can get blogging, journaling, more regularly I might be dumping photos by the month.

Feel free to skip the next few posts as there are a lot of photos and this is for my memory.

Benjamin is my climber

We did a lot of swimming this summer

Our tree after it was cut down

More Swimming...we had fun with the slide

Benjamin is constantly hiding in this cupboard. He thinks he is hilarious.

Going Home from California

Driving home from California with an over night stop at Aunt Kim's in Arizona.

This is what Jill found when she got home Sunday night.

I took these the morning after we got home.

Austin's Birthday

Austin had his birthday while we were in California so we celebrated a couple times while we were there. He had a party up at Lake Arrowhead (I'm not sure why I don't have any photos of that) with pizza. And opening presents at my parents' house.

Impromptu Trip to California in June

On the last day of school, we loaded up and headed to California. My dad had his stem cell transplant and we decided we needed to go have a quick trip. Bryan worked remotely a few days so we were able to stay a little longer to make the long drive worth it.

I think Odin still liked us when we got there.

Hanging out at COH

COH

We had some fun while at COH

Katie, Papa, Stella, Bryan and Luke

Kim and kids came while we were in California, so we went to Six Flags one day.

Luke was a trooper at Six Flags

Adam on Ninja (I think). It was hot and we were tired after hiking way up to the ride

Austin on Ninja

Austin on X2. I think he would like it more if he was taller, he kind of got bumped around in the seat.

Last day visiting Papa at COH. Katie and I were in his room with him since he couldn't leave it. Everyone else went and stood on the grass outside his window (5th floor right?). This was one of my favorite parts of the trip.

Benjamin and Odin being friends. Both with their bears and I think both with binkies.

The Rest of May and End of School Events

Adam is a really good oldest brother

Luke is a very happy baby. I have been blessed with happy babies.

The biggest boys acting goofy with Luke

I don't remember what is going on here but they are so happy here.

Isaac LOVED the Kinder Beach Day. I hardly saw him.

Benjamin post Popsicle

Bouncy water slide and Austin just after going down the slide, goggles and all

Austin was glad he had his goggles for the water balloon toss.
