Lazy days of summer

Seriously, I mean completely LAZY!

Yay for the sunshine,

for fenced-in backyards,

for bare feet,

for blow up swimming pools,

and for entertaining backyard toys,

that allow mommy to take it easy. . .

(and I've still got 8 more weeks to go. . .)

Happy summer everyone. . . Finally!

This is why

my kids may never be allowed to wear make-up. . .

"Pe-tty Nake-up mom!"

Last Saturday

3300 vertical feet in 6 miles!

Powder Mountain Hillclimb in Eden, UT.

Glad he made it up, cause the car (with stranded pregnant wife and 2 toddlers) sure couldn't--dumb car. . .

And he kicked rear end too! 1st place in his category.

Wish I was there to see him get the award.

Great job honey!

10 bucks

at a yard sale. . . .

BOO-YAH!!!!!

ZOO

Why spend close to $40 for a family of 4 to go to the movies when you can have as much fun as this for $12. . .

Seriously. . .

forget the stroller? . . . no prob. . . two to a seat

till it gets too crowded and then you get the best view from dad's shoulders. . .

Gigantor turtles

See the family resemblance? -- not to me, to that hilarious picture of a lemur. . . geez

Yay for uncles!

who can stand like the flamingos?

awwwww. . .

I can't even remember what I was pointing at here but this is a good shot at my growing belly, minus the love handles. . .

The peacock put on a show for us. . . here's the best picture of my little sister's newly forming baby bump. . .

Look closely at this wallaby's tummy and you can see her adorable baby. Now Carina thinks she should be able to see the baby in MY tummy. . . I wish . . .

The best part was drinking out of a lion's mouth. Who knew?

(Mike wanted to point out Talon's extra huge biceps in this picture too.)

Lion handprint------- Carina could take him. . .

enough pictures mom, lets go see more real animals. . .

Another favorite, feeding the goats.

Pelicans are stinky, that's all I have to say about that. . .

About a gazillion pictures later and we headed home where the girls zonked! Yes!

I'm thinking we're going to have to try this again.
