Summertime Fun

First, I have to tell you that our camera recently died. I haven't taken it to a camera repair shop yet, but I'm hoping it can be fixed. In the meantime, we are using our old camera, which doesn't quite compare to our newer one. So, I apologize for the blurry, dark, hard-to-see photos. Okay, now that that's out of the way, onto my post...

We've had a very laid-back summer lately. Lots of days spent playing with friends, lounging at the pool, and occasionally sleeping in! I've collected some random photos from the past month that I thought would be fun to share...

Our Busch Gardens pass includes their "Summer Nights" program where the park stays open later and they perform a light/pyrotechnic/gymnastics/dance/music show called "Kinetic." We went a couple weeks ago and Payton loved the show! Actually, we all really enjoyed it. It was kind of like a really crazy version of Cirque de Soliel. Of course he had to ride all the crazy rides while we were there too. Here are some photos of that evening...


Of course we've also had our share of rainy afternoon thunderstorms too. In which case, Payton and I often retreat to the guest room for a serious game of Mario Kart on the Wii. These other pictures are of our neighbors down the street whom Payton loves to play with under any circumstance - come rain or shine!


Lastly, I had to post these photos that Payton took the other morning when we were walking Rohy. The first ones turned out really quite good! Then the last ones made me laugh out loud when I viewed them on the camera. He's such a funny kid! Enjoy...
