**PHOTO UPDATE** - i don't know how i managed to forget the highlight of sawyer's afternoon yesterday - the boat ride! our friends, dave and sharon (the parents of "big adam" and sophia), have a canoe and dave and kenny took the older boys "out for a paddle" towards the end of the day. sawyer has since instructed me to go to walmart and buy us a boat. photo attached below...

a few pictures of our day sunning, grilling, fishing, swimming... is there a way to make the summer last well into november, and then let it be cold for thanksgiving and christmas, and then have the spring and summer start the first of january until the following november? (if you tell me that's how it is in florida or georgia...since i know some of my  readers live there, we'll be planning our early retirement in one of those states, i promise. except you're going to have to do something about the palmetto bugs before our arrival).

we enjoyed dinner with my dad and some friends on our deck saturday...but the pictures didn't turn out. one of these days, i will post official deck pictures, since it is completely finished now.

we met some friends at a local state park yesterday. rowan and sawyer and their friend "big adam" (as opposed to their baby brother adam) roasting marshmallows:
 

"big adam" caught a small-mouth bass...kenny's de-hooking it for him:


rowan caught a sunny:


this is rowan holding sawyer's fish. sawyer reeled him in and then dropped the pole and ran away. he thought the fish was going to eat him. oh, the mind of an almost-three-year-old:


sawyer only posed for me once his fish was back in the water. proud little guy:


adam, posing as if he's the bathign suit cover model. what a little ham!


the canoe ride:


it was a bit chilly for a july day, but we enjoyed it nonetheless.
bring back the dog days, please!!!

AWESOME!

Catch and release day! I remember those... everyone of my fishing expeditions... even when we weren't cathing and releasing I was still catching and releasing because I never caught one to keep! Well I did catch one one time, but we had to keep it because I couldn't get the hook out of the gills without causing too much damage.

I can see Sawyer dropping the pole and running way!

Great pick of Adam. Love the pics of Rowan and the fish, and Sawyer posing for you! Nah, the boys don't love Mommy! ;-)
