thejaxn5: A bit of summer

I feel like I didn't take that many pictures this summer. But I was able to take a few of the boys jumping off the diving board and Alyssa in her swimming lessons.

Some time in Myrtle Beach with the Jackson family.....another Jackson family...no relation though.

Can you see the rainbow? It was faint...but out there...really cool!

The kids entertained themselves with a few pair of stockings (I found them in my closet and thought they would make for some good laughs). We laughed so hard we almost peed our pants!

Asian-Piglet versions of Brady, Cole, Alyssa, Devon & Mckenna:

Our usual visit to Dick's Last Resort:

IF you can read Brady's hat...just know that thankfully, we had to explain it in a little more detail! :)

SO true:

....and even MORE perfect. When her hat was read to her, Alyssa stated....."how did they know I was a brat!" :)

My hat said, Should have stayed on birth control....good thing I didn't because then I wouldn't have my three monkeys. And Brian's said, Viagra is my best friend.....good thing it's really not!!! We didn't go into detail with the kids on our hats.

Another usual trip to go putt-putting:

This would have been a good picture IF Cole wasn't being such a baby. Alyssa kept hitting his ball out of the way!

Alyssa really didn't like the beach :(. Which was SO disappointing because I LOVE THE BEACH and could stay ALL day my with my feet in the sand and water reading a good book.

So, a lot of the time was at the pool....which Devon and Mckenna really helped keep Alyssa entertained! They even taught her a few not so unique teen poses.....5 going on 13 for sure!

OH PLEASE CATCH HER!!!!!!!!!

Funny how Alyssa is the only one that can't reach and she is the one without a raft.....help her in kids!

Typical!

Give your Mama a smile....much better!

Our last evening on the beach. It had just rained, so there was no one out there, which was perfect because I really don't like other people in the background.
