So my boys finally found out about Webkinz. Katri not only has an influence on me, her daugther has one on my kids. ;-} They love it and it was such a bonding moment for us when we went to buy them.

I hosted movie night on Wednesday and I finally watched “Gone with the Wind”. I know there are some seriously devoted fans out there, so don’t mind me. It’s probably one of those movies that’s better seen when you’re young and you don’t understand the plot. In my opinin, Clark Gabel was way too old for the part and it kinda creeped me out. Was it typical for so many people to die from falling of a horse at that time!?! However, so you don’t completely blacklist my blog, I did think that for a movie made in the ’30s, it’s very well made, well acted, and the visual effects were impressive. I did enjoy the action sequences. ;-}

Just so you know how ill-bread I am. I had lunch with Julie on Thursday and then I went and saw Live Free or Die Hard. I thought it was great. It had a good mix of action and humor. Gotta love a good action flick.

Drake fell asleep at dinner today. This is how he looks and how I feel!

Turk boys. Enough said.

I’ve been planning this picture since I bought these swim trunks back in April. Yeah!

I just had this done at Sears b/c it’s easy. The photographer was very fast. She went from one pose to the next quickly and had a lot of energy. I do wish she had waited for Drake (baby) to smile a little better but it worked and we were done in 10 minutes w/o any crying from the boys or from me. ;-}

This is Lisa’s (my sister’s) favorite picture!

The pool’s closed and it’s 90 something degrees so, out comes the slip ‘n slide! The boys had so much fun and Drake (15 months) couldn’t get enough.

Davis’ turn! I think it’s so funny that Drake won’t eat bread, crackers, banana’s, apple juice, etc – but he’ll eat mulch, gravel, and drink from the slip ‘n slide. Hmmm?

The boys have resorted to playing UNDER the trampoline! Yes, Drake’s in his birthday suit. He got so wet and his diaper swelled up it was easier to just stripped him down.

For the boys “graduation” present this year I took them to the Build-a-Bear Workshop. They are still really into stuffed animals so it was a perfect present for them! Fungus (Dylan’s dog) and Nay Nay (Davis’ horse) are the two lastest additions to the family. I think this has been the best end of year gift I’ve given them to date.
