This week felt like the last hoorah to summer even though we have a full week left until school starts. It was long but short at the same time. It was hot and busy and we are glad it’s over.

Here’s our week . . .

One afternoon the boys were begging to make paper planes, watch tv, and eat. So I sent them outside with popsicles and a bowl of soapy water to clean their cars.

Tortilla for dinner. One of our favorites!

Brooks looks too old in the picture. I can imagine him as a teenager. Also, note he is finally able to clean and he likes it.

I got to see my nephew last weekend and take some pictures. This is my favorite.

Epic train building every morning.

This is how I felt most of the week. 

He tried to go with no nap but he just couldn’t keep up.

One exciting trip to Target for school supplies. Probably won’t do this again unless its an emergency.

White House building.

Guilty brownie face. Obligatory Dad-throwing-child-in-the-air picture. Jonas doesn’t like bathing with pants on.

So this is Silas’ interpretation of “ruins.” Not sure which ones.

Sometimes he is so lovely. Sometimes.Tried to get these kids into art this week.

We saw the Eric Carle exhibit at the The High. This is Jonas’ little lady friend Maia. Together they make quite a team.

Wants to be just like brother. He wore these for 24 hours. He tried to find them again and I hid them in the dirty clothes.

Yogurt for lunch! We do this every summer. Ten seconds after taking this picture Jonas threw his spoon in the air and had a melt down. We quickly had to leave the premises.

See you next week!
