Fun in June

It's been so beautiful here in Santa Barbara, we go outside and play as often as we can. We're not use to this nice weather in June. And on grass! Crazy! We were all playing hanging out and Nathan crawled to Nana and tried to take her glasses. Pulled her hair in the process...

As I'm taking pictures, of course Brigham wants some of him...
...and then Nathan wants to get up close and personal...

By the end of our play time the boys had enough of the camera, enough of each other, and enough of playing. Nap time!!

This is the life

Just hangin' out in the backyard of my moms doing...nothing. And it's so fun! The weather is warm with a slight breeze, the kids are running around, paying the many toys around the yard, playing in the creek and jumping in and out of the kids pools my mom set up. I'm lounging outside reading and daydreaming.

This is the life!

Santa Barbara FUN!!!

Gavin flew to Santa Barbara a week before I did. He hung out with Papa and Nana and had a blast with them. By the time I arrived with Brigham and Nathan, he was ecstatic to show me everything he'd done.
As I'm lounging in the backyard reading, he's showing me how he helped Papa pick up Rosie's poop.

We ate lunch outside and he was lovin' the watermelon!!

I was laying there, and had to get something from inside. When I returned this is what I found...

At the Mann home, the boys had bought Deb a orange, apple and avocado tree for Mother's Day. They were just putting the trees into the ground when we drove up. Gavin thought it was awesome to use the jack-hammer.

One of the days while we were in SB we took a walk by Los Canero's lake. We all walked while Gavin rode his bike. We brought a loaf of bread and had a fun time feeding the ducks.

Before I had arrived one of my mom's neighbors had major plumbing problems. There were workers out fixing the problem for several days. And every day Gavin was out there chatting it up asking several questions and watching the curious work being done. The guys on the job were all real nice to him. By the time I had arrived they fixed the problem and I was able to join Gavin in watching the cement being poured to fill the huge hole in the road.

We all had a FUN time, as usual, in SB!

A little more of SB!

I was going through my camera last night and found I still had a few pictures of our Spring Break trip we took to Santa Barbara.

The weather was perfect while we were there. One day the boys blew up a little pool and played in the water for hours. Cute little Brigham kept watching them through the window. So, I finally let him out to explore the water. I honestly didn't think he'd get too wet. The water was REALLY cold!

There is always yard work at Nana's lush green home. And most of the boys love to be outside helping. Everyone but sweet little Jackson! He just doesn't have the green thumb like I do! I got it from my Gram. Will loves it, Tyler loves it and Gavin does a little too. My mom, Scott and Jackson prefer to do other things!
