Maggie adores her little cousins.

We visited a playground after basketball camp one day.

The boys and I went to the movies.

Luke is crazy about my brother’s dog, Bruzer.

The boys borrowed Bruzer’s dog lead. They took turns attaching it to their clothes so they could safely rock climb.

Adam and Luke have both been all about superheroes lately.

I stole five of their superhero figurines and froze them. It was their job to free them from the ice.

Adam and my mom won $5 playing the grocery store version of Monopoly. Adam was pretty excited, mainly because Mabel let him use the money to buy a new kickball.

I had the perfect thing for Maggie to wear on the 4th of July. When I tried to put it on her that morning though, she refused. Instead, she shoved a tutu at me and said, “princess!”

Princess indeed.

I was finally able to talk her into the red, white, and blue outfit three days later.

My brother-in-law runs a week long basketball camp each summer. This year, Adam was finally old enough to go to it.

He had an awesome time. He learned a lot too – not just about basketball, but about sportsmanship too. Rob really does a phenomenal job with the camp.

He even got a certificate at the end of the week. He was the “Dribble Duck Duck Goose” champ for his age group.
