Sprinks and Splashes

Summer brings out my silliness. Here I am with a ball in my back. I thought it was hilarious to bounce from couch to couch with a ball stuffed in my shirt.

Always searching for bugs. I like to pick them up and put them on the swing. I think the ants really like to swing but not so sure the roly poly bugs like it. Oh well, they pretty much do what I tell them and I like it.

Water balloon fights are a blast as long as I get to throw them all.

And the sprinks...love to run through it lately. It's a nice way to cool off in the heat of the day. I like to go naked but I'm learning there's a time and place for that. So..I guess I'll deal with a diaper. I am also getting quite good at shooting hoops. My neighbor friend, Delton has a big hoop we play on. I get to stand on the mini-trampoline so I can dunk. It's awesome!

Summer screams grilled food. My favorite is CORN on the cobb of course. It is so tasty. I eat every last kernel too. I don't like any of it to go to waste. YUMMMY!

Enjoy the fun that summer brings. I can't wait to hear the big boom of the fireworks this weekend!

Memorable Memorial

Hey Guys! Sorry, once again the weeks fly by and I forget to update you all. I have been so busy since I turned two. Nobody told me that life gets busier as you get older. Whew! I've taken some serious naps to try to keep my energy along with sleeping all night long without waking up.

I had been missing my mom and dad the week before Memorial Day. They've been super busy with school, work, etc. They kept telling me how much fun we would have over the long weekend and we DID!!!! We went to the Jackson Airport for breakfast and got to see all kinds of airplanes fly in and take off. It was awesome! The blueberry pancakes weren't too bad either.

Then I went swimming at Grandma Linda and Grandpa Steve's house. It was really hot so the water felt great. I love to try and stay on the big raft and do some jumps off the side of the pool. That night, I went to Ben's house for fireworks. We did sparklers before the big show started. They were hot! Ben and I also mastered the art of jumping from high places- like his outdoor swingset/ jungle gym thing. We have no fear!

Sunday, we went to church, ate at Cascades Mannor House with Grandpa Chuck and Grandma Dede and then went Putt Putt. I liked it but it was harder than I thought. I liked to pick the balls up and roll them, kinda like bowling. I think it will take some more practice before I can compete with Tiger.

Monday, I went with Dad to Grandma Vicki and Poppy's house for a cookout. I got to see all the Sheppard boys and play. It was cool, as usual. Then Daddy and I met up with Mommy at Aunt Neen's house for another cookout. I got my own tour of the big firetrucks while I was there. I got to make the siren go and turn the lights on. Those trucks are BIG and green...I mean RED! Green is my favorite color so I kid around with people and say everything is green. I like to see people laugh.

Thanks Uncle Jack!

Until next time- B
