I almost did it...

So, I came really close to getting a picture every day. It's going to take me a while to get used to. Plus a smaller camera (hint, hint Prince Charming). I love my camera...but it is super bulky and not really travel friendly. I would like one that I could just leave in my purse. Of course, then I would let it go completely dead and still not be able to take pictures. Oh well, one step at a time, right?

SATURDAY

We went to the second annual movie at the park night. It helps that the park is directly across the street from our house. Our friends like that our house is directly across the street too. Kids have to go to the bathroom at the most inconvenient times. We watched Bolt, which I think is one of the best Disney movies ever!

SUNDAY

Tyler has become addicted to wearing his Crocs. Hey, I'm totally fine with that. Until your toes get super crusty. He had taken a shower the night before, but obviously the dirt-laden toes didn't go through the entire cleaning process. So I made him wear his "fancy" shoes sans socks to church. He complained the entire time. I told him that maybe it would remind him why I like for him to take a bath instead of a shower. It allows time for the dirt to soak off.

MONDAY

It hailed three times in one day. Hopefully you can see the hail on the sidewalk.

TUESDAY

This is what a kid looks like when there is no electricity. It actually went out before the storm even started and came back on after the storm was over. Weird. Tyler kept insisting that every light bulb in the house was burned out.

WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY...& FRIDAY

Hey, I never said I was perfect.

SATURDAY

I'm not sure why he chooses to sleep in the recliner when there is a sofa and loveseat. Not to mention the bed he has in his room...

SUNDAY

We went to a car show in Old Colorado City today. The boys love going to car shows, thank goodness. I love this picture of them. Now I have to figure out how to get my camera off the black and white setting.

Whew...summer went by too fast!

I can hardly believe that summer is over for us. The boys started school on August 5th, and I had to report on August 3rd. I hate not being able to take them to school and pick them up, but Ed does a great job taking care of everything for me. What a great guy! Since the boys are in a regular public school now, they get to wear whatever they want to school, which they love. I even gave in and let Tyler wear his Phineas and Ferb shirt to school the first day with his Lightning McQueen light up shoes. Hey, I should consider myself lucky that Tyler opted for the $14 pair of Lightening McQueen shoes instead of the $50 Nike shoes. My new philosophy is that if he prefers the cheap stuff now, that's what I'll get him. I know that in a few years that is bound to change! Of course, Logan's wardrobe is full of skulls, skateboards, and guitars. I stood firm on no character shoes for him...no matter how "cool" those Bakugan shoes were.
Since our schedule has changed so drastically, I have decided to do something different with my blog. My cousin's wife does this neat thing called "Project 365", where she takes a picture every day and blogs about what they did every day that week, but she only does it once a week. I think that Saturday mornings will be my catch up from the week blog day. Of course, I can't do that today because I have no pictures from this week, except a phone shot of the boys the first day of school.

Wish me luck! (Oh, and I have no idea why the first part is underlined!)
