More July Update

 Adam loves to play with the dirt in our flower pots.

 Eli has started to ride really fast down hills on his bike, so bought him some elbow and knee pads.  The gloves came along with them.  Here he is in his biking gear.  Adam likes to sit on the tricycle while Eli rides.

 Eli in his "grandpa pants".  No offense to the grandpas in the world.

We have frequent dance parties at our house.  Here are the boys with their "guitars".

 Here is Jake on the morning before his dissertation defense.  The boys are watching him get ready.  I love that on the 3rd picture the boys are holding hands walking into our room.

The summers here are super hot, so we cool off every Friday morning at the water park.  There is a special free story time that we always go to.

 (Don't worry, Adam caught himself before he fell off the curb.)

Eli has been learning the alphabet, and he went through a phase where he wanted to spell the letters with our bodies for fun.  Can you guess the letters?

The boys helping Daddy feel better.

For Family Home Evening we watched the Olympics and made flag cookies.
