Here are some pictures I found on my phone. I've been really bad about taking pictures lately. I guess this was a mini photo shoot that Jeremy and Matthew took together. Here a couple of their shots.

During the sweltering days of summer I put a wading pool out on the back porch which the kids loved playing in, until they turned it into a mud pond at least once a week. They just can't resist putting dirt into everything. Hopefully one day soon we'll get grass in our backyard so they aren't always playing in the dirt/mud.
Nora has fun accessorizing with sunglasses, necklaces, purses, and whatever kind of hat she can find.

We also celebrated Matthew turning 5 in August. He requested a carrot cake with blue frosting and sprinkles. Easy enough. He also started half-day kindergarten at a local charter school that we were so excited he was accepted into. He wears a uniform every day which is nice since he doesn't have to worry about what he's going to wear every day.

Grandma Medford came for a few days and the kids loved spending time with her, especially on the seesaw at the playground and when Grandma plays "See Me Run" on the piano.

We also celebrated my 31st birthday in September. Wow, I guess a lot has happened since I last posted. Jeremy has also fixed up the hot tub and it is now working, finished up most of the cabinetry and woodwork in the kitchen, put up a fan in the kitchen, and I have done some painting around the house. There's still tons to do, but we're getting there.
