The Adventures of Summer 2012

I have anticipated summer for several months, heck, maybe even several years.....to do fun things with Troy!  I am excited about the pool, spraygrounds, playgrounds, amusement parks, zoos, backyard play, and time with family and friends.  I'd say that the last few weeks have definitely been complete with lots o' summer fun.  Here are some of our favorite times of summer 2012 so far:

Troy and I headed to my work's golf outing.  Although we skipped swinging the clubs, we took several rides in the cart and Troy practiced his corn hole skills.

We have taken countless strolls around the block in the Cozy Coupe Troy received as a birthday gift from Granny and Granny Lucy.

I wouldn't necessarily say this is my favorite activity, but Troy's most favorite activity is trying to climb the stairs.  We have become very creative in blocking the stairs!  Recently, he can now climb over this ottoman......plan B has yet to be determined.

Stairs!

Troy spends countless hours filling our kitchen with balls and cars!

Slide fun with daddy at the Tom Sawyer Park.

Birthday lunch for mommy and time with dad on a Friday afternoon!

Happy Birthday to me!

Water table fun!

We fished inside when it was over 100 degrees outside!

Swings!

Sprayground fun!

Zoo Splashpark with friends

Backyard Oasis

QT pool time with Aunt Trisha

A dip in the pool with Mady and Kate

Pool time on the 4th of July!  Troy's favorite pool activity....hanging out on the stairs :)

Beating the heat and playing in the sink

One of Troy's favorite summer indoor toys! Lightening McQueen from Grandma and Grandpa

We have had so much fun, despite the blazing heat we've endured almost all summer long.  We try to spend as much time outside as possible.  We often blow bubbles, which is a favorite activity.  I know we're looking forward to more summer fun and perhaps a few short road trips!
