We had such a great time at the Phoenix Zoo for Winter in July. There really wasn't enough snow to mention, but they gave out frozen treats to the animals so we were able to see more than what we would normally see. It was a great time and wasn't too hot at 7 am!
I just wanted to keep in touch with all of you about what we've been up to this summer so far, but I haven't had a lot of time, so here is the quick synopsis. Up top is Jack loving his swimming lessons. He actually LOVES the pool like a normal person would, unlike Kyler who must be 78% fish, 22% human. I swear, this is what we do all day - SWIM! Oh, no we don't go to movies, because they are loud and dark. We get up early and exercise so that we can make and eat tons of pancakes for breakfast everyday, then swim, then go to the store to buy flour and syrup, then swim again. Oh yeah, there's Jack's therapy, then swimming... that is what summer is for, right?
My parents went to Mexico and brought back these adorable linen shirts for the boys. I just had to take a picture of them. They look cuter in person, but they looked like two mafia men on vacation. So cute!
Jack and Kyler were lucky enough to be in swim lessons for two weeks with a woman from our community, Marci. She was so great and the boys just LOVED her, and the heated pool! They have a two week reprieve and will be back at it the end of the month. Jack actually loved hunting for Easter eggs, even though the picture doesn't quite show his appreciation. Kyler picked up one and then dug into the candy, but they sure loved everything about Easter this year. Thanks to our families we had 3 hunts at home and a hunt at school too. You can only imagine all of the candy that Mommy and Daddy are eating, still...
Year #4 was a success! We had to do a party a little early since Pepe will be out of town on their birthday, but we had so much fun. Chick-fil-A was having their family day with a bounce house, so we decided to take advantage of the free fun! Jack and Kyler had a great time and shared their party favors with some of the other kids there. They we lucky to be able to celebrate with Aunt Amber, Uncle Tim, cousins Allie and Jenna, Grandma and Grandpa Peterson, Great Grandma Peggy, and, of course, mom and dad. I can't believe it has been 4 years!
These two are peas in a pod. Kyler LOVES Jenna. They have so much fun together and laugh at each other, it is so cute. Kyler actually talks so much about Jenna that he has Jack saying "Je-na" all of the time. So stinkin' cute. I was able to capture this moment of Kyler driving his cousin around our backyard in his Jeep. Oh, and yes, he did let her drive, too!
We had such a great trip to Disneyland! The boys met Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, Goofy, Eeyore, Captain Hook, Chip, and Dale. It was so great. Jack loved the Its a Small World ride and Kyler put his hands up on the Go Coaster in ToonTown. It was such a great trip and we are all sad to be back home, but we're already planning the next one!
