Meet and greet baby Hugo at the beach!

So now baby Hugo has come to town, and we had fun at the beach on the ONE nice day we've had in a long time. It was the perfect day for a beach party.
It has hardly felt like summer yet, and July is almost over! Sad. I feel bad for the people out camping as there has been rain almost daily and the mosquitoes by the water are vicious!
We are still living in limbo, with no sure job at this point. When I'm not busy with the boys, I'm in a slight permanent state of panic attack. Please pray that things come together soon. My heart can't take the stress much longer. Thank you!

Cousin time!!

(I removed the photos of the D girls for their privacy sake.)

We've had all the cousins...except baby Hugo...around to play this week. It is getting LOUD and so much harder to actually meet up in one house (and still be able to hear). It is fun though, and it is great how well all these cousins know eachother. I hope we see just as much of our cousins every year to follow. The thought of them all in their teens is just crazy fun.
Baby Hugo comes this weekend!!

Riley goes to camp!!!

Everyone is SO excited!!
Have fun, Riley-boy!

First time for everything!!

After a lot of tangles, and much anticipation, we tried out fishing today. The boys caught five little guys!!




We're fishermen!!

DAYCAMP!

I should just have a big sign around my neck that says, "DAYCAMP" on it. Then everyone will know why and what I'm up to. Why my house is a wreck, my kids are crazy, my brain is fried and I am tired. I'm the craft director again this year for only grade twos...so planning for 60 kids. No biggie, but being a director means I'm responsible for the team under me and directing my youth helpers. Communicating, decorating, organizing. I enjoy it, but wish I still didn't have to deal with my mess at home at the same time!! So yes, that's what we're up to, and after next week, we will officially be on holiday mode.
We have made it to the beach twice already, and the waterslides yesterday, so that's good. I did get my deck stained, and my freezer jam made, so two things crossed off the long list!

Yay summer...you crazy mayhem of a season!

Silly willies.
