July seems to be going quick and Facebook

July seems to come and go each year so quickly. I guess b/c we get into our summer routine by then and also fill our days with family visiting and friends for playdates at the pool and parks. We were so lucky to have my brother home for almost 2 weeks. The boys love their Uncle Brian. They wouldn't leave him alone every time he was around. We had a cookout with my parents and Brian at our place and then went to see fireworks too. Last year the boys loved them so we thought this year we'd get closer and actually go down to where they let them off instead of just staying in our neighborhood. Not exactly the best idea. They were scared at the first one. We had to turn it into a game calling them rockets shooting up into the sky. Still I think Tad and I did more talking to the boys to calm them down than actually watching the fireworks but it was still fun to be with family. We are leaving for the beach in a couple weeks and Tad's work schedule freed up a bit that he can go along now too. We'll be meeting my sister and her family there. The cousins are going to have so much fun in the sand. Connor and Peyton would live outside if you let them. They love the sandbox, the parks, and playgrounds. I hope we have good weather and can take lots of pictures. That is about all that is going on here. Just playing and swimming these days.

One more thing. Tad and I joined facebook this past weekend. We love it. We have both found so many people from the past on it. We actually fired up the laptop so we both could get on the computers at the same time. I know we're nerds but that's ok. We're having fun.
