Outdoor Fun

We've definitely been enjoying getting to be outside more this summer.  Even though it's still really hot here in Midland, the humidity is almost non-existent, so you can actually survive being outside better than in Houston.  Midland has lots of great parks and we have plans to make our rounds before school starts.  There is also a cute little playground for our neighborhood right down the street from our house.  The boys and I took a quick walk down there last week and they had fun climbing around and sliding down their big slides.  (It's a good alternative until we get our swing set put back together - waiting to make some decisions about the backyard before we tackle that project.)  We also LOVE our big flat driveway in the back of the house.  The houses around here utilize an alley entry system, so most of the houses have big driveways in the back and it's perfect for riding scooters and shooting baskets.

Drew is getting really good at shooting baskets!

Cool dude

Josh is a blur on his new scooter!
