Our Summer Celebration

Jeff had the Independence Day holiday off of work and asked if I'd like to celebrate summer, so that we did!  He got out the swimming pool, put up the umbrellas, and froze some icee pops.  I ran to the store and got hotdogs!  We celebrate big like that.  :)  We had a fun time yesterday and again today!

Zane took swimming lessons last summer and both of us can remember him loving the pool.  We would push him through the water and he would laugh and squeal!  This summer, it was a different story!  He didn't want to even sit down in the water.  He preferred to stand and would say "no, thank you!" when we'd ask him if he wanted to sit down.  So, Jeff ran to the store and bought a smaller pool, but he still didn't care for it.  Maybe next summer he will!  He really liked digging and water plants dead or alive with his cups.  :)  He did get in the big pool with us, but he was very careful about what he did.  :)

Coming back after checking out what Dada was doing.

Our oasis!  The umbrellas were "treasure" left at the new house!

Filling Zane's new pool!

He's got a mouth full of blue icee pop!

Yummy!!!  He got to eat two!

He loved his cubby spot under the table.  He dug and dug and dug to his hearts content. 

Dump!

This was a couple days ago.

This next one is of Zane singing today.  He is pretty creative and makes up songs with tunes he knows.  Tonight it was about cantaloupe!


We got Zane a little slide for his birthday.  It didn't take long, maybe a day, for him to climb up it!


The next video is of Zane counting his tractor tires.  He and daddy did it over and over and over!
