Picking blueberries

Johnny had to clean jacks shoe out a lot

Once I gave Charlie the ok to eat a blueberry he went to town...we gave them a tip for the extras that we didn't weigh :)

We ended up with 2 pounds 

The other half of the botanical gardens

Bamboo gardens

4th of July alligator adventure

We saw a alligator on campus. Johnny's goal when we moved was to see an alligator. So, we took a walk around a lake and found one right away!

This is not zoomed in!!

We put the boys down for about 2 seconds...really! Johnny was so scared. I guess I should have been more scared.

We went to feed ducks after naptime. The baby ducks were so cute running over for bread. The momma duck was so protective...I loved her!

We decided last minute to keep the boys up late and go watch fireworks. It was fun and they lasted for about 30 minutes!! Charlie said "boom"!

Random events in early July

Jack said he was on tv :)

Walking to our new church

Charlie has been crying a lot lately and putting his hand in his mouth...really annoying!

We went back to the museum to see the titanoboa

We went to see the butterfly's too and Charlie is more scared than me!!

They got a prize...snake slap bracelets

We went back to the museum because jack wanted to get some friends from back home some gifts

This was in the post office!

A new park 

They have LOVED the water table on the porch and will spend an hour out there!

Pete has a tough life!!
