Total Eclipse in HSB

 Charlie on Sunday with a box hat. Before this, he had been wearing it on his arm and calling it his "bionic arm"! Ha!

 Paul has been picking back up the guitar. He borrowed this from his parents, and we haven't gotten around to getting it restrung (one string is missing), but he's pretty good. He plays a song or two to the kids at bedtime and they LOVE it!

 At the sand volleyball court at the park one morning. Grace is always taking pictures. Wonder where she gets that from?

 Dillon on the mandolin and Paul on the guitar. They had so much fun jamming together!

 Cuties in their eclipse glasses in HSB.

 Looking up at the sun.

 Last Sunday, the kids went for a ride in the back of Uncle Mike's truck.

 We played a bunch of Dad's favorite hymns on Sunday. Greg on violin, Haley on top hand, and me on bottom hand.

 Cool new shirts from Grandma Flake!

 Eclipse ready!

 Crescent shadows between our fingers.

 More crescents.

Tuckered out watching a show when we finally got home. Their new shirts just happen to match their bean bag chairs!

 Breakfast on the patio.

 Ready for our hike, complete with sweatbands!

 This is what happens when Charlie gets a hold of a stamp.

 New school clothes for Danny, even though he's too little for school.

 Roses from my boyfriend. Can you believe these were less than $3?

Death of a Pacifier

 Sometimes when the boys wake up in the morning, they're not quite ready to actually get going yet.

 Teaching Grace to make lasagna. It was good!

 Breakfast buddies!

 Half cleaned-off facepaint. Scary!

 When breakfast involves chocolate prizes. Danny slept without his pacifier and Charlie didn't call out at all in the night.

 A rare moment when Charlie and Alice are getting along.

 Grace on the fountain in front of the post office.

 She made a fairy sleeping bag out of leaves.

 Dog pile!

 Tour of Utah bike race on our main road.

 The kids made cute signs for it:)

 The TruGreen guy came and put fertilizer pellets all over our lawn like he does every month. Kind of silly. And since there is no moisture at all to soak it up, the pellets just blew off onto the newly-resurfaced road. The guy didn't even bother sticking the sign in the lawn. I wouldn't want to use our lawn as an advertisement either! This is 5 weeks without water, folks.

 Paul's webelos camp this weekend. He and his companion took seven boys.

 Archery.

 Outdoor games.

 Shooting.

Swimming.
