It hasn't been a total wash, but there has definitely been a bunch of rain lately, and rain makes me lazy. Lazy means I let the blog slip and it's therefore blog catch up time again!
I never did mention much about Alex & Ben's mini vacation while we were in NOLA. It was pretty much camp with Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Michael. They took the boys fishing (catch & release), golfing (real golfing, not mini-golf, or pitch & putt, or top golf, the REAL thing), swimming, movies, cookouts with roasted marshmallows, squirt gun fights, video games, they made ice cream, and I don't even know what else. They had a blast - all 4 of them :-)
We got enough breaks in the rainy weather to hit the pool a bunch last week, then Bill came and most of this week was pretty unfavorable. We did manage to sneak in a swim Thursday morning.
I am loving summer break though. No schedules, we've gotten into a sort of semi routine where we wake up whenever, have breakfast, kids do some chores and practice piano then we are free for whatever all afternoon. This past week we had one of Ben's friends over most days (sick relative so the kid is being shuffled around while everyone takes turns at the hospital).
Today we went peach picking. It was a bit drizzly so no one was at the farm. We had the place virtually to ourselves. Not sure which the boys liked more - all of the hayrides to and from the orchard or actually picking the peaches. Fun day, and now I have 4 1/2 dozen peaches to do something with!
