Jonah. . .and the whale

This week Traci, one of my dear TU friends, came down to Indy for a visit with her kids for the day. We had a great time playing, etc. That night at dinner I asked the boys if they had fun with Jonah. . .Grant said "YES! And that is the Jonah that when he gets bigger is going to fall in the water and when God is done with him he will get to go to Heaven!" Now that I think of it, Grant was probably wondering if this was the "real Jonah" ever since all the boys sat in the boat at Dick's Sporting Goods that morning!!

Happy B-day Gigi & a "Boys Stuff" Weekend

We headed to Illinois this weekend for Gigi's (Terry's Grandma) 85th birthday. We had some anxious boys on Friday. . no one took naps because they couldn't wait for daddy to get home so we could leave. Part of the fun is getting to watch DVD'ds in the van the WHOLE WAY THERE! A special treat because they are only allowed on trips!

When the party was over on Saturday night, the boys, Terry and Papa went camping. They had stayed up really lated eating smores and telling storeis (afavorite thing to do in our house!)

While the boys were gone, Grammie and I had a "girls nite" and watched a movie. This morning we headed over to the campground. . .here is my favorite shot of the day:

Papa cooked up a yummy breakfast --eggs and sausage.

After breakfast we went over to the Archery Range--Grant LOVED this. It is his new "favorite thing" this summer. A neighbor bought him his own bow and arrow from the DOLLAR SPOT at Target about a month ago and he has gone nuts shooting the arrows. He even wants an archery birthday party. He sure makes it easy on me, doesn't he?? The guy at the range was SO nice. . .he even let all the boy shoot a number of times. Here is Grant using ALL his strength.
The boys also enjoyed a little fishing and Grammie & Papa's lake. Seemed like they caught more seaweed than fish!
It was definitely a quiet ride home. . .Cole even slept the whole way!

The Shoes

After our outing to the Children's Museum this week, I feel the need to do a little "advertising." During our visit I had 3 different moms come up to me to ask about the boy's shoes. Of course each time I was a walking advertisement for Keen. . .
"Oh, I just love them! They are washable, comfortable, great for outdoors, a little bit pricey but definitely well worth it, blah, blah, blah. . .!"I would imagine these women got more than an they asked for. Hmm, should I contact Keen to see if I can join their advertising team?

Hmmmm. . .cont.!

Another bath. . .another bikini???

Hot Summer Days

We headed to the pool with some friends to cool off today. . .all 3 Moritz boys are now swimming pretty confidently in the deep end, so the LOVE to show off their "moves!" Ready to jump?
Luke and Cole like to see who is crazier.
Luke with his buddy Andrew.
Sweet Hollyn enjoyed chewing on her rubber duck most of the day!
Life would be boring without Grant. . .he's enjoying a ride in Hollyn's baby float!

Hmmmm. . .

I sent the boys upstairs to get ready for baths. When I went up to check on them, this is what I found.

Christmas in July

It is only July, but I have started working on Christmas card templates for the upcoming season. This is one of the many I have started. Hopefully by August they will all be available for viewing on littlePiggleWiggle and Rhema Photography.
