Seems so rare these days that I star in ANY pictures, what with the kids hogging the spotlight, I figured I'd post a rare one of yours truly, setting up the kids' tent at our company picnic.

Go Fly A Kite
A beatiful, slightly breezy day at New Brighton Park was the perfect time for flying kites. Justin really got the hang of it after awhile and had the highest kite of the day by a country mile. Brooks...well...I think she liked the running part more than the flying part!

Nana and Papa's Visit
Justin doesn't like having his picture taken these days, but Brooks is still a poser!
Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge
Dad strolls down the walkway onto the suspension bridge.
He's not the least bit scared, even standing smack dab in the middle!
This is "after" the crossing...I think Mom wet herself!
Summer Fun
Brooklyn looks for help on the crazy twisting balance slide at Second Beach.
Training wheels are still on!
Justin peeks out from inside a tree fort!

Justin Is Growing Up
Anyone who has young kids is undoubtedly familiar with Dora the Explorer and her best friend Boots the monkey. When Justin was going through the Dora phase (yes, preschool boys love her too) we bought an annoying CD of all the annoying songs from the show.
One of the tracks deep into the CD has Boots singing about balls..."I love my balls, my bouncy balls, I love my balls, balls, balls, balls, balls! My balls are bouncy, my balls are blue, I love my balls and you can play with them too"! OK, so if you're even half as immature as I am, you are snickering to yourself and wondering how they ever got away with that one on a kid's CD.
Fastforward a couple of years and now Brooklyn is the one into Dora and Boots. Tonight when we were playing, Brooks started singing the song and I joined in...and suddenly Justin burst into hysterical laughter. Deep, gut-busting belly laughs! He's 6 years old and he finally got it! That's my boy!
