June 2012

Summer is flying by! How do I make it stop or at least slow down? The beginning of June seemed like an eternity ago. Now it's July and summer is half over. Sad.
I somehow didn't seem to take a lot of photos in June. Not sure why. We did a lot of things around town. We've been to the Lifetime pool a lot. The boys love it. We've also been to the lake a few times and the boys love that even more. They love swimming around the lake in their life jackets. They could do it for hours.

Father's Day was in mid June. This is the first time in four years we did not go to Great Wolf Lodge on Father's Day. We decided it was time for a break. Instead we spent Father's Day at the lake with family. It was a great day. We grilled out, had good food and lots of swimming. The boys were excited to have picked out a movie gift certificate for Doug and Hawkeye and Steelers mugs. We also made Doug an iMovie with photos and videos of him and the boys going back to when they were born. It was my first iMovie and I loved the end product. I think Doug enjoyed it too.We got to attend the Olympic Swim Trials this month. Doug's coworker does a lot of work at the event, so she got us some great seats. We were in the second row right at the starting line. I am not sure how much the boys enjoyed the trials, but I really did. It was exciting to see the big names and see them compete.

Charlie also turned 8 1/2 this month. I can't believe he's so big. He asked to have the M&M and Kit Kat cake like Jack had for his birthday, so I obliged and we made a big cake.
