summer break

First day of summer break: I had to work, but the boys painted pictures in the morning. 

Second day of summer break: I had to work again.  Today was Hanna's last day until fall.  Since EWU is also out for the summer she's moving back home for the break and then she will be back in the fall.  She knows the boys love to draw and color, so she bought Connor a huge multi colored crayon and Kaiden 3 multi colored small crayons that look like rocks.  They both loved them.  Jason went to the store and bought her a gift card.  Since he was there he decided to get me something too (2 days after my birthday).  He got me a balloon, card, Connor picked out some dark chocolate strawberry bark, Kaiden picked out carrots and some cookies and cream mini cupcakes.  He left it on the counter for me to find when I got home from work at midnight.  you can see one of Connor's large drawings behind the stuff on the counter.  Pictured below is Kaiden being a super hero and Connor's Lego table.  Our formal dining room table (which never gets used) has become Connor's Lego table for the last year.  He spends countless hours creating his own creatures, villages, battle fields, etc.
