Bubble fun.
Our neighbors down at camp have a whole bucket full of wands for blowing bubbles out on their deck. So, Coy and Liz played bubble wars in "who can make the biggest bubble"?

Coy did a pretty good job of making the biggest bubble.

But, Lizzie wins for making the most bubbles at one time.

And, as always, the bubbles spilled and there was no more bubble making fun.

Thursday's thoughts.

Remember this? The famous, (okay, maybe the not so famous) Rubik's Cube. Coy came home the other week from the toy store with one of these crazy things. I explained to him that when I was a kid (way back in the 80's when they first came out) I had a Rubik's Cube. And, I honestly can say that I have never, ever got all the colors to align back up. Guess what...

Twenty-some years later... I still cannot get the darn thing. Oh well, Happy Thursday!

Wordless Wednesday.

Summertime Visions.
I have been thinking a lot about summer and what it was like when I was little and how long and hot the days were. These pictures remind me of what summer is and what summer should be.

A tall glass of lemon ice tea.

A see saw at the playground.

Relaxing in the shade on a hot, hot day.

Soaking your feet down at the water's edge.

So what visions do you have when you think of summer?

My Freckle Boy.
I love in the summer when the kids are kissed by the sun and all their freckles start to pop out.

So when I asked Coy the other day where he go all his freckles he replied "The freckle store!" Well, of course, the freckle store. Why didn't I think of that?

Happy Birthday America.
Headed to the lake for a long holiday weekend. Hope everyone has a good Fourth of July.

Green overload.
I have been hearing a lot of people complain about the rainy weather we have been having lately, but just look how beautiful things around us are because of it. I cannot get enough of all the beautiful greenery that has been surrounding me.

And, this handsome guy picked a flower for his mama.

And this little girl is to anxious to pick blackberries that just are not quite ready to be picked yet.
