Audience participation

Raise your hand if you couldn't really say why you've been too busy to blog but then you downloaded your pictures and remembered where summer has gone.

Raise your hand if you had a blast wearing the same t-shirts with 60 other members of your immediate family. Raise your hand if you had to play in the water lots so you didn't die of heat stroke.

Raise your hand if all those members in your family got to make their own race car (that's our favorite palindrome) a la Pinewood Derby and we still can't stop talking about it.
Raise your hand if you had three kids enrolled in swimming lessons

Raise your hand if your 7-year-old has really great smoochie lips


Raise your hand if your 2-year-old thought that watching older brothers swim at the pool was worth a lot of snacks






Raise your hand if your 8-year-old had to celebrate his 9th Birthday early since he'll be at Lake Powell on the actual day.
You may also raise your hand if you now know where the 7-year-old learned to pose for pictures with smoochie lips.

Isn't that how Leon poses? With his signature kissy-face?
How come you didn't post about how sharing snacks with cousins shared the love of handfootmouth disease?

That is quite the raising hands summer...and those are quite impressive smoochie lips...I pray my boys don't learn those for many years to come...I guess I don't mind if they learn them, maybe I just don't want them to use them for real...you know, on girls!

100% -well except for the 8 year old thing. And I think I get bonus point because here people actually do die of heat stroke!

Thanks for the fun activity.

Matching BYU shirts on cousins? Did I miss a reunion? We could have a lot of fun with that reunion theme.
