Um, yeah, Kevin's shirt pretty much sums it up. School ends for summer break, and if we don't keep the kids entertained, chaos ensues!
There were some really hot days in early June, so we got out the kids' pool. It almost looks like they were trying synchronized swimming!

Andrea and Kevin played really well together in the pool.
Andrea had some fun in a bubble bath later that night. She was buried in bubbles!

When she sat up, it looked like she had some kind of bubble wrestling helmet on!
On hot summer days, when you don't feel like cooking, order a pizza! Andrea got creative and smashed some french fries onto her pizza. That's an interesting combination!
Kevin just wanted be silly for the camera. He was making his pizza fly, I think. (?)

We taught the kids what the right conditions are to make a rainbow, so we keep an eye out for them. This one appeared one evening, and it was a beauty. If you look closely at the second picture, you can see a second rainbow above the first.
Andrea likes to pick me bouquets of "flowers." I say "flowers" in quotation marks because she doesn't understand that they are almost always a pretty weed. Anyway, one day I helped her put together a nice combination of pretty weeds from our yard and pretty flowers poking through the fence from the neighbours' yard. We were pleased with the final effect.
Fun on Video
The night of the bubble bath, Andrea was trying desperately to learn how to cross her eyes. We tried everything: looking at her nose, focusing on a close-up object, etc. But she just couldn't get it! The result was a lot of laughs, though.
Ryan finds a lot of things on TV quite funny, but you'll never know what it's going to be. On this night, he was laughing at the "Cars Toon" where Mater has a wrestling fan who wants his autograph, and Lightning McQueen wants to give the guy an autograph, too, but is refused.
Then, Andrea started shaking her head back and forth at Ryan, and THAT made him giggle. She was also happy because he leaned over and gave her a Ryan-hug (essentially, he gently butts his head against you).
Then, Andrea got tired of Ryan being the centre of attention, and decided to make me laugh, so I'd get HER on video. It worked.
