Last days of summer...

We soaked up what rays we could...spent as much time on the water as we could...Spencer spent many days and MANY hours on the lake catching turtles. We took care of 7 for a few weeks along with 4 toads. What is it with kids and creatures. The joys of watching toads eat bugs that we caught for them. Let's just say they didn't go hungry. In fact, just the opposite..poor things were so fat it was uncalled for. The turtles tried to make a run for the water every time they were let out, but let's just say that was NOT going to happen. Ah, yes - the last days of summer....

After playing on the water we took on a thunderstorm with hail.

It was raining so hard the kids & dads enjoyed the overflow of water.

Trevor loved the penguins at the Omaha Zoo.

Feeding the birds, but they were constantly flying about.
