These guys made pudding pops. Unfortunately, we only had one set of popsicle molds, and a big package of pudding. They were crushed.

Rowan recently saw Little Giants. As usual, we spend the next two weeks recreating scenes and reciting lines.

We made our annual trip to the drive in. We met friends this time, and saw The Sorcerer's Apprentice. It's always hard to find a time we can go that matches up with a movie we can see, so this worked out well.

It's not a big secret that there are things that irritate me about this town. Here's one of them - my 8 year old wearing pads and a helmet for flag football this fall. However, do you see that smile? He's so excited about this that he can't stand it.

Swim lessons started this week. There wasn't as much fuss as last year, thank goodness. And because of some problem at the "old" pool, their lessons got moved to the new pool. We may have to head back there some afternoon, because it looks pretty fun!

Conor and Ellie both have a night each week that they help with dinner. Rowan has been complaining that he wanted to help to, so this was his night. Unfortunately, I couldn't capture the NONSTOP narrative that he kept up. For some reason he was quiet for the video.

And then that lovely dinner exploded in the oven. You'll be glad to know that the steam clean feature on our new oven works wonderfully!
