Summer fun

I just saw that posts from awhile ago never posted so you'll get to see them now. Plus I'll add a few photos from the last weeks. 
Popsicle fun...we keep trying all different variations of fruit and juices in our Popsicles and luckily my favorite (pineapple and strawberry purée) is their least favorite (shocked them as much as me) so I got to eat all of them.
4th of July fun: we walked to the fireworks with a friend and had a great time!
Heading to school: since we live near the boys school and my office we can walk. And sometimes in the afternoon we walk through a park to the pool. You can't tell from this photo but Elliot is usually the one begging that we take the stroller instead of the car.
Henry and Elliot love our new road because they can ride their bike and Razor right from our driveway
More soon!

Birthday fun

Henry's birthday was a few weeks ago. With Elliot's just around the corner we had a joint birthday party for them. The bounty of presents was of course enjoyed - especially because they are still able to share so well. I'm sure that will change soon, but until then we'll make the most of it!
Super hero powers on the way to the zoo
And Elliot read the night time story - a new fav book they got for their bday. Note the teenage mutant ninja turtles accoutrements 

Okefenokee fun

 Recently we enjoyed a 2 night camping adventure in Okefenokee Swamp. The weather was perfect, the adventures fun, and the gators a plenty.
Our campsite was a short walk to the entrance.
And our first hike had a run in with what we think was a water moccasin 
The first night we hung out at the main water entrance and happened to find someone fishing. Henry knew the first fish he caught was a sunfish!

We bonded with Sophie, the resident alligator  near the park entrance who was lazing around with two babies near by.

We went canoeing the next day and saw at least 7 gators often within a few feet of our boat.

And hung out on Billy's Island for a picnic that made Elliot super happy
But of course there was time for relaxing
