Lots 'O Pictures!!

Summer is winding down so Jace and Lexa have been trying to squeeze as much fun out of it as possible. And let Mommy say, the fun has just about been squeezed to the max. Too much togetherness = excessive fighting. But enough about that, check out the recent fun.

Ozzy had a birthday! He turned 8 years old! Jace and Lexa decided to let him borrow some of their stuffed toys to celebrate with. You can see the excitement it evoked in him.

Grandma and Grandpa were car shopping nearby last week so Jace and Lexa made a trip to see them and visit the science station. Grandma and Jace built cars out of legos and raced them...if you can call it that. Let's just say Grandma isn't quite a lego pro.....

Hard hats for hard headed children.

She trusted him enough to lift her using the ropes.  Although he is Spidey....so who wouldn't trust him.

THEN, Jace and Lexa were able to meet Tom, Erin, and Keegan at the zoo! Can you say fun overload?! Here are the little sweeties (insert sarcasm if you desire) posing on a frog.
 Well shoot! In trying to add a caption to the photo with Keegan, it got lost. Lost somewhere in the scary land called the world wide web. To maintain her sanity Mommy is not going to try and find it. Moving on.....

Yep. They rode a camel. Actually they mostly just cried. And they rode a camel. But of course, 2 seconds after, it was SO AWESOME!

And there was face painting. Who could resist a Spiderman mask painted on their face? Not this boy. And then wouldn't ya know, Lexa NEEDED hers done too. She requested a 'girl one'. 

Jace takes his Spidey responsibilities very seriously.

Apparently the superpowers are going to his head. That is quite the pose.....

And if all that excitement wasn't enough...Gaige had a birthday party. An Olympic birthday party! Jace and Gaige were (somewhat) pros at keeping a balloon between them while they walked. Slowly.

Oh Miss Lexa. You do resemble your Mama.

Playing 'toss the water balloon'. It was basically raining throughout the entire party so it was hard to tell what was a smashed balloon and what was water from the first rain all summer.

Lexa won a medal for being the best cheerleader. As you can see, her 'Lexatude' was out in full force. Maybe nobody told her that cheerleaders are athletes too?

Jace standing on the podium receiving his medal for best one shoed player. His Mommy (who won a medal for Mommy of the year---or not so much) put him in flip flops to run around in the pouring rain. Needless to say, he was wearing 1 shoe most of the time.


And that concludes this installment of Jace and Lexa's fun! Jace starts kindergarten on Wednesday so there most likely will be a post including his obligatory 'front of the school with a backpack' photo then. Check back!


P.S. Lexa is in big girl undies! Can she get a whoooo hooooo!!!!
