Random Summer Pics

You knew one was coming right?

There are just too many random photos that are blog worthy that I should wrote about when it happened. I'll try and summarize as best as possible!

We cleaned out our garage this summer! Way over due! Look at all that garage that had been sitting in it! 

Finally we can park two cars again!

Anthony and I love to pull out the ice cream after the kids go asleep and watch a movie or sit and talk. Anthony likes to his ice cream crunchy and will often added random things to get it that crunch!

Not sure what caused this!

Sigh...sadly to say.. it happens too often to remember!

This I remember!

The kids were all playing outside when Julia began to cry. Anthony went out to investigate and comes running in with a screaming Julia. The story comes out that the boys were swinging really hard on the swing set...causing it to rock and to lift off the ground a little. Julia was standing to close and got her foot under the pipe. It came down on her foot but then right back up and she moved it out. We took her to the doctor, pretty sure that she had broke something. Nothing was broken thankfully!

Its things like this that lets me know that my kids have guardian angels! Julia could have easily had her toes severed off...at the least her toes broken! The pipe was full of dirt so her foot remain flat and didn't come up when the pipe came down. Truly a small miracle!

Anthony and I attended a high school football game and left after we saw this! As we got the parking lot, it poured buckets!!  What a night!

Julia's nose will often get dry and we wake up to this!

We love taking walks as a family!

Matthew is our little monkey!

For Anthony's birthday, my parents gave him shelves for the garage! 

He was so excited! We bough the wood and Anthony and my dad spent an afternoon putting them together!

He even made to get a loft out of it too!

One of our couches bit the dust! 

The kids discovered this hole and had a great time throwing the stuffing around everywhere! 

What a mess!

Again...

not sure why he had bandaids but loved this!
