Long Time No Talk!!

Well, it has been a while. What can I say? School got the best of me and took up all my time. It was a fast paced semester, but I managed to keep my all A's record!! :) So, this is just a quick summer time update - because of school we haven't done anything too majorly fun, but we will hopefully be going camping next weekend. So anyway here goes:

Mason got his tonsils and adenoids taken out a couple months ago. It was not a pleasant experience. Well, actually, everything went fine until he had to wake up from anesthesia, then it was all down hill. He cried and screamed and wouldn't eat the dang popsicle that the nurse was forcing him to eat before she would say he could go home. Finally the doc came in and he gave permission for us to leave. Mason slept the whole way home and had two popsicles when we got home, I knew he would do that, just couldn't convince the nurse. So it was a rough two weeks, but we are back to normal and he is back to his busy self.
What kid doesn't want to have a lemonade stand??? Charly recruited her brother and two neighbor friends and set up their little stand by the pool. They actually ended up making about three dollars. Too cute.
The boys (and often times, Charly, too) love to dump their toys out and make boat rides - this is the boys taking turns pushing the "boat." It's cute, it makes them happy, so therefore, it makes mom happy.
Then lastly we've gotten to spend a bit more time with my little cute nephew Bryton. He wasn't a happy camper when I would get up and walk away from him, but Porter kept trying to sit close to him and give him kisses, so I had to catch a pic.
