Feelin' hot hot hot!! I'm not going to complain too much because it's waaaayyyyyy better to be hot than cold (and have snow) but it's been HOT here lately. I mean HOT. So the boys and I have been trying to think of ways to beat the heat. They usually involve some sort of cold/frozen treat. We went for slushies at Sonic and we had ice cream at McDonald's. (Reed)
It's soooooo hot out that the ice cream didn't even stand a chance. Grant
We've been playing in the sprinklers and with our cool bucket toys. Daddy found these at Wal-Mart at the end of last summer season. We didn't get a chance to play with them then but are LOVING them now.
You just push the buck down on the base and the water fills it from the bottom up. So cool!!
They just kept watering the grass, my feet, and each other.

My handsome little men are turning three on Thursday so we decided to celebrate over the weekend. We went to the zoo with Uncle Whitney, Daddy, and my friends Jeff and John. We had such a great time. It was like a thousand degrees out so that part wasn't fun but we still had a good time.

The boys thought the giraffes were sooooooo cool!!
In the petting zoo we got to help brush the goats.

After we got home from the zoo it was nap time. During nap time Jeff, Whit, and I decorated the house for the afternoon party. When the boys woke up they were ready to Par-ty. (Reed)
The boys just wanted to sit at the table and look at their cakes. (Diego cakes)
Grangie and Grandpa are getting the boys a swing set for their birthday and Jeff and I got them some cool stuff from little tikes that's not here yet sooooooo, the only gifts they had were from Auntie Lacey and Uncle Whitney and Auntie Kristen and Uncle Doug and Justin and Alexa.
They got two new cozy coupes from them!!! How cool!!! They LOVE them. They ride them all over the house!! (BTW....thanks uncle Whitney and daddy for putting them together. Who know you would need a PHD in little tikes to figure it out)
Then it was time to sing Happy Birthday!!!!
My guys!!

Make a wish Reed.
Grant eating his cake. They got to pick their own cakes this year. They both picked a "Diego" cake but Grant picked white cake and Reed picked chocolate.
Reed digging in to his cake!
We weren't really watching Grant that closely and he was sticking his fork into the big cake in front of him instead of the piece on his plate. He got in a few big bites before we saw what he was up to. Their actual birthday is on Thursday and we are going to Chuck E Cheese's. I'll post pics afterwards.
