The Fun Parts of Summer...

Our summer hasn't been entirely eventful.
True, we have taken a little 'vacation' to Fruitland and Tyler's had a little time off.... but mostly we've just enjoyed spending time together on the weekends. We've also had some strange summer weather, like rainstorms and 55*?!
Seriously, I can deal with rain and mild weather for 9 months, but please don't cut into my glorious 3 months of summer sunshine!
Luckily, it has warmed up and I am reminded of things I enjoy about summertime....

We love going to parks!

Braxton loves going out for a stroll in the park and Quincy loves having some freedom on the playground equipment.

We love fresh fruit!

A few clients at Tyler's bank in Damascus have brought in some fresh produce and so we've had the pleasure of fresh peaches and strawberries.... there is nothing better than fresh fruit in the summertime!

We love the outdoors!

I love that my flower pots are in full bloom. There's nothing like looking out our sliding glass window to see some fresh flowers growing.

We love the warm weather!

Quincy has discovered that he enjoys being able to take off his underwear and pants to 'live on the wild side' and pee outdoors. He discovered this new activity while at the Pickett's house, when Karen jokingly said "Go pee out in the yard Quincy." He took her advice, and Tyler's -- that he should ditch the bottom half of his clothes to avoid getting anything on him-- and went.
Needless to say, Quincy had a great time peeing in the yard and was highly disappointed that he can't pee off our patio-- we informed him that the neighbors below probably wouldn't like getting pee on them.

Isn't summertime wonderful?
