Summer.....Part One!

So, here are just a few pictures of some of our adventures this summer. We did a ton of stuff this summer and there are too many pictures to add now (it's almost time to get Noah from school). Anyway, here are some of our summer adventures...more to follow when I get time!

While we were in Summerland one weekend we went to some amusement park in Penticton. There were quite a few fun rides. Both boys were able to go on the go-carts. Here are Isaiah and Grandpa taking a cruise around the track. Noah went with Greg.

Here are the boys resting during a gruelling game of mini-golf. It sure was hot this weekend. As ususal Isaiah is clowning around.

A trip to Summerland just isn't complete without a trip to Summerland Sweets. Noah tried "Moose Tracks" in this picture and ended up with a "Moose Track Moustache".

We also spent a fair bit of time at the lake of course. This year the lake was the warmest I have ever felt it. The boys were more into burrying themselves in the sand. Eventually they had to go in the water....to clean off.

Grandma and Grandpa also bought all the boys fishing rods this year. So, after a little 4x4'ing in the Civic we found a little lake and the kids were able to do some fishing. No fish were caught but the boys had fun anyway.

At the end of Summer, while Greg was working, I took the boys up to Summerland for one last visit before school. During that trip we hiked up Giants Head Mountain. This is the view of Okanagan Lake and Summerland from just above my parents house.

We also visited Grandma at work and the boys were able to climb up onto the dump truck sitting outside her office.....I think this may have been the hi-light of the trip.

The boys picked peaches from the orchard next door. Here is my artistic attempt of picture taking. Fun!

Noah was more into eating than picking. I think in total he ate 6 peaches before we made it back to my parents house.

The boys also got in a good jeep ride while we were there. Both of them love the jeep and so they had fun.

So, it's official, Noah is in school now. Here he is on his first day of school. He LOVES SCHOOL. He goes everyday from 8:30 until 11:00. I don't think he learns anything but has fun playing with all his friends anyway.

Here is Zay in his "New to him" Pumpkin Costume. He looks pretty scary!

In the jungle the mighty jungle the lion sleeps tonight! Noah, all tuckered out after a day of school and playing with his friends.

Okay, so these are the best goodie bag gifts ever. My kids have had so much fun with these it isn't even funny.....or is it? What a ham!

Noah had to get in on the glasses action too....only he looks like a goomba and it's obvious he can't be serious for even one moment!
So there you have it, photos from the second half of our summer.....the first half photos will be along shortly but now I must go get Noah from school.
