A few things to share from recent weeks...

Haircuts.  Yes, I consider that blog-worthy because I take them on my own.  And honestly, every time I go I wonder why I don't always tote around lollipop bribes.  It does wonders to keep them in the chairs...    

      

...an impromptu scavenger hunt orchestrated and executed by daddy as a wake-up treat for the oldest boys.  It sent them dashing up and down and every which way throughout the house.  They moved so quickly that my attempt to capture it all ended in a sad, blurry mess (I'm trying to shoot in manual these days and can't change camera settings very fast!)... 

As an extra bonus, the hunt included a gift for mom, too--some early morning quiet time as they enjoyed the fruits of their search (Star Wars books hidden in the washer)...

We're packing in a lot of activities and outings during these dwindling weeks of summer.  More to share soon.  Because I don't want to forget this special family time.  I'm smart enough to know that these summer days with my little ones only seem endless.
