Remodeling...

Well I busted my butt by separating the boys into their own rooms this weekend. This is the final outcome of both. Jaxons theme is vintage toys and Zanes theme is the beach/surfer. After all of that we relaxed at the beach on Sunday and went snorkeling.

Happy 4th of July!

We went to Port Charlotte this week for the 4th of July and visited with some old and new friends. The boys played ring toss, bullseye and even participated in a tug-o-war!

Top 10 summertime adventures of Zane and Jaxon

We have been having one fun summer. Things we have accomplished so far...
1. Got our hands dirty by making a herb garden. (cilantro, parsley, thyme-which Zane pronounces Timey-, basil and rosemary.
2. Travel to the beach every weekend to go snorkeling.
3. Zane has learned how to swim without any floating device and swims like a mermaid.
4. Jaxon has learned how to spell. His favorite word to spell is STOP and ABBIE.
5. Zane went fishing with Vini and Tyler and learned how to cast his pole into the water which is the first step to becoming a real fisherman.
6. Zane has learned to "heal" on his new Healeys that he got from his Mamaw on his 7th birthday.
7. The boys have mastered Lego Star Wars video game on their daddy's X Box.
8. Purchased Star Wars laser swords to fight with which becomes more of a problems since they are different colors and we find a reason to fight over any and everything at this age.
9. Bosco dives into the pool at Charity's house and they think that it is the craziest thing to watch him do.
10. Tanned sunkissed, freckle faced, blond haired boys that I absolutely adore!

Summer fun!

We had a sugar filled day today. Lots of fun and kids gone wild! Thanks to all the sugar, ice cream cake, pizza, swimming and presents. Happy Birthday to my little boy!

To the beach again...

We are off to the beach again but first we have to stop the ice cream truck for some treats.

Bath Time!

I guess we are so excited about out goggles that we even have to use them in the tub.

Some lazy day...

Today was a day filled with fun. We went to the beach early this morning and took Bosco with us. As we were out in the water about 5 feet away from us was a Manatee swimming around. The boys went snorkling as mommy sunbathed. When we got home we went for a bike ride and went to see the horses 2 streets over and Zane found a turtle. He wanted to keep it but we explained to him that it belonged outside, not trapped in a tank. So he, daddy and Jaxon went across the street and put it back into the lake. When they got home we had some ice cream to cool off from the hot day. I think everyone should sleep well tonight. Some lazy day......

Happy Memorial Day!

Alot has happened in the past 2 weeks. Jaxon lost his first tooth and the tooth fairy left him a whole dollar. He also graduated from Pre-kindergarten to officially become a Kindergartner. Zane had his cast taken off on Wednesday and today at his school I met him for lunch and he showed me around the playground and to some of his friends. His teacher Mrs. Nordstrom had her very own award ceremony for just the children in her class today. Zane recieved 3 awards. One from Ms. Bazzy the music teacher for Outstanding performance in music, one from Mrs. Nordstrom for Most friendliest student and another for the most thoughtful student. There is only one week of school left to which the boys, (especially Zane) is counting down till summer vacation on his calender in his room.
