Our Summer in Images (AKA: The Most Pictures I Have Ever Uploaded to Blogger)

So there is really nothing left to say. The title says it all. I am too tired to be witty.

You're welcome.

Just as a reminder as to how busy our summer has been, I was getting the camera (our point and shoot) ready to take some pics this upcoming weekend. Generally speaking, I download pictures every time I use the camera. I never leave pics from one event on the card to take to the next event. Neurotic? Sure. But, I never run out of room on my memory card. So, tonight as I was getting the camera set up for the weekend, I noticed that I hadn't downloaded our pictures all summer long. CrAzY, I know. Looking back through them was like going down a very short memory lane. A memory lane that was our summer.

Here you go:

(Oh, and if you have ever worked with pictures in blogger, you'll know and understand completely when I tell you that these images are in NO particular order. That would be NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE)

First up, a family self portrait. I took these with the timer and the ol' tripod. My legs were so sore the next day from doing the equivalent of about 100 5o yard dashes in record breaking time. I still never got the "perfect" shot, but I couldn't run any longer so...


After all that running we celebrated The Little Man's B-day at Red Robin. Yes, I treated myself to a second helping of fries, thankyouverymuch.


The Little Man's B-day Party...remember the one with gale force winds?







A day I thought it would be fun to play in the sprinklers instead of going to the pool. See! I do add variety to our routine.






Some baseball time:


Here's The Little Man playing 1st base with Daddy coaching behind:


Ooops, more sprinkler fun...see, I told you...no particular order!


And some more baseball:


At the VERY beginning of Summer Break, we thought we would spend a rainy day at a local museum. Little did we know, with all the rain we got this summer, we should have bought an annual membership.




All the cousins:


You know how The Little Man can get a little wild with the way he dresses? Well, every once in a while, The Girl will pull out a show stopper herself:


Some more birthday party action:


Are you wondering if a picture from this past winter accidentally slid into the batch? Well, your wrong. Here are the kids all bundled up for the Fourth of July. It was delightful.


Ahhh...the pool...




We hit the zoo this summer with the cousins as well:


If I really wanted to dig deep, and spend more time uploading pictures to blogger, I would find a picture that is similar to this one except the children are much, much smaller, and the bear is actually visible underneath the children. They aren't supposed to grow this fast!


The Little Man and his favorite girl cousin:


The Little Man didn't really like the smell of the Pacaderm House, and he thought he would help his cousin out as well:


See, I told you...he gets wild! Here we have a cross between Spider Man, Darth, and a pirate:


Ahhh...more pool:






A hat he got when he was six months old:

(isn't this what your children do when they are supposed to be putting on PJ's?)

Proud to earn a trophy from a great season in baseball:


The Hubs and I on our 9th anniversary:



As we went to Meet The Teacher Night tonight, I realized that tomorrow would be our last Friday of Summer Break.

My heart sank.

But look at all the fun we had!

Oh, and there was still some dancing!
