happy June 1st

Happy June 1st everyone.  I guess summer is officially here.  Our family is having a great beginning to our summer.  Derrick has fenced in our backyard, we have some patio furniture and a new grill (thanks to Derrick's dad - yeah papaw).  So the kids have been playing like crazy out there and we have been grilling like crazy.  Derrick has become quite the grill master!  I have even borrowed an ice cream maker and made homemade frozen lemonade and ice cream.  I cant tell you how much I'm loving the freedom of a fenced backyard.  On another note, this weekend was slam packed.  We spent Friday at Memaw and Papaw's (for those of you who don't know that is Derrick's parents) where we -you guessed it - grilled out.  We have also been playing on their new Wii game system.  Alex loves golf and bowling on it and he is actually good at it.  I have picts of Alex playing Wii golf and Logan using the tv remote thinking that he is playing.  How cute is that?!  Alex has also mastered the mouse on the computer and loves playing games with Thomas the tank engine on Memaws laptop.  My little computer nerd with his serious expression.  I hope you guys are enjoying your summer as much as we are!

For a laugh:  While getting ready for church this morning, Alex came into the kitchen carring a piece of toilet paper.  He had just came from where Derrick was using the potty and he asked so seriously "Mommy can you go wipe my daddy?''
