Body Art

Luke and Becca were feeling a little creative on a Sunday afternoon.

Test Drive!

Most of you have probably heard that we bought a boat a couple of weeks ago and we're really excited about it! Here are some pictures of the day we got to test drive our beautiful boat - the day we officially decided to take it home with us ...

We played around the dealership while we waited for Cliff to be ready to take us out on the lake..

Note the bouncy ball on the left of this picture. I think Luke forgot to keep his eye on the ball.

Racing Daddy to catch the bouncy ball.

Right after Luke threw a "fit." He didn't want Daddy to beat him to the ball, so he was deeply offended when Jeff did. But Luke's fits aren't what you would probably imagine them to be. He doesn't kick or scream. He just lies down flat on the ground on this stomach and stares silently straight ahead. Yep. It's pretty rough. haha But this time, when Luke tried lying on the pavement, he said, "hot! hot!" and got up right away. He walked over to the little path that's next to him in this picture and tried again, but that was too hot too. He finally figured out that the grass wasn't too hot and threw his "fit" there. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again, I guess.

Pouting in the boat while we waited.

Luke getting his valley girl on.

Watching the little tractor pull our boat out to the lake. Luke thought that was the coolest!

On the water!

Jeff has driven a boat a few times in his life, but not recently. He wasn't nervous at all though. I was shaking in my boots, worrying Cliff might make me try driving on this tiny lake (I've never driven a boat before), especially when he made Jeff try docking it! Thank goodness he didn't make me!

Luke was so excited to drive!

This boy is already as in love with boating as his dad is!

Happy, happy boy!

Cliff let this little tough guy sit on his little dirt bike in the repair garage.

A bench made out of the seats of a boat. Awesome.

Cliff let Luke play with the hose too. I think Luke wanted to stay and play with him all day instead of going home with Jeff and I.

When Cliff asked us what we were thinking after we got to test drive the boat, Jeff acted unsure and indifferent and I blurted out, "I want it!" Obviously, I'm not very good at negotiating. But it all worked out. We still got it for a great deal! I might have been in trouble otherwise. ;)

Another Beautiful Bike Ride and Splash Pad Kinda Day

What a face! I bought Luke Pizza Hut pizza for lunch while we were waiting at Target for Tutti Frutti to open. It followed us around all day, until Luke finally ate the very last bite at our 4th stop! It was just far too tasty to throw away!

I was a hot mess with no make-up and crazy wind-blown hair! Good thing my little weekday partner-in-crime doesn't care what I look like!

How cute is that little grin?? Luke didn't warn me that the plan was not to ruin the picture with goofy faces.

Onward to battle, my faithful ...frog.

Just finishing up that delicious pizza.

Frequent Splashers

Yep, more splash pad pictures. But they're really cute ones! And this isn't the last of them. We are serious splash pad frequenters lately and a lot of the time I don't even bother bringing my camera with me, but on the days I do have it, I'm almost guaranteed to see something too cute not to capture on camera!

Silly, silly Becca

 

It was a boys day! Bethany and Becca were outnumbered!

So gross! I stopped Luke before he licked some parasites off of this "fire hydrant!"

Dane, Isaac, and Bethany. Bethany and Isaac LOVE each other! They are the cutest little 4-year-old version of a boyfriend and girlfriend! Isaac even told Bethany that she is the "most beautiful girl in the world!" Adorable.

Jett and Rocklond. Rocklond was once wearing a swim suit, but he managed to sneak out of it.

Isaac was strutting and dancing through these rings like a cool guy!

Streeettttccchhh!

Mmm..granola bar.

Becca thought Luke's bike trailer looked like a nice place to sit for snack time. She's in the middle of a trade for Luke's granola bar.

Sunshine, swimsuits, and not a hint of make-up! Feels like summer!

Luke decided that Winnie the Pooh was due for a bath.

Randi came by with her kids and they all jumped right in with their clothes on!

Hugs!
