Rainbow Fish!

H made a beautiful rainbow fish today. I cut out a fish shape for him, then cut some long strands using tissue paper. He glued the strands onto the fish to make it very colorful!

Beautiful Day on Kiawah

Rainbow light prism! 
 

We had a great time at Kiawah! There were lots of sand dollars and starfish! We went for a walk and relaxed and played in the water, it was so much fun! It was a beautiful day and hopefully a new start tradition to go to Kiawah on the last day of summer break!

Park and Playground Fun

We are so lucky to live in a neighborhood where we can walk to the park fields and the two playgrounds! The kids enjoyed tonight because we came with daddy and flew airplanes and discs, and then went to have some fun on the playground and slides! We love summer evenings!

Fun Beach/Creek Day

We are so lucky to be surrounded by so much beauty where we live! We had a great day at the beach/creek with some good friends who joined us. We were blessed with nice weather too!

We love weekends in Emi's pool!

Wilderness Walk

My three boys...
We went to a birthday party at the sprinklers, then after it was over, we decided to take a nature walk on one of the smaller trails. It was very peaceful and nice and cool under the shade of all the tall trees! <3

Pool Party!

Today we went to our friends house for a tie dye crafting extravaganza! While we waited for everything to dry, we went over to the pool to cool off and play on the playground!

A Splashin' Good Time!

We had a blast at the water park, as you can see from the picture above, Brayden was sure worn out! He is our little swimming daredevil. There is no slide or tube he is too afraid to go on! He goes on everything! Our little swimmer...

Action Packed Day

What an action packed day we had! First we went to a friend's birthday party where we jumped in jump castles and ate lots of yummy food and cake! Then we went to the arcade and played some games! Then we saw the Minion's movie! We are worn out!

Just a Little Night Swimming...

The sound of the crickets, the night sky, the warm water, it was a perfect way to end the day!

Relaxing Day at Emi's After the 4th

Huddy Buddy has it made in the shade. 

Poolside dining. 

We enjoyed a nature walk in the afternoon after swimming. The boys had a great time running free. We tried to find wild berries but it must have been after season because we couldn't find any. :(

Happy Birthday America!

Gathering sticks for our homemade American Flag Wreath. 

Cutting the sticks to be just the right size for the flag. 

Playing "War" with friends on 4th of July while we waited for the parade to start outside. Inside in the AC while waiting was sure nice. :)

Playing in the pool after the parade with our best friend, AKA Grandpa. 

These America flags were so fun to make! We gathered sticks from the yard, then cut them until they were all the same size. Then we painted them red white and blue, and added "stars." We glued them together with a hot glue gun, then finally we hung them with a piece of blue ribbon, but you could use red or white ribbon as well. Fun! 

Everyone say hot dog! 

Ready for our classic American grill fest! What a spread! 

Doing pop-it's in the yard while we waited to go to the fireworks!

Picture perfect setting, fireworks over the inlet, Murrells Inlet. 

Our patriotic cupcakes turned out so cute! They were so easy too. All we did was made cupcakes out of already blue dyed cake batter. Then we whipped up some whipped cream with whipping cream, vanilla extract and sugar. Then we cut the stem's off of some strawberries and placed them on top of the whipped cream topping, that we had placed on top of the cupcakes. So easy, and so cute! Happy 4th of July!
