my 3 monkeys

Holy Cow, its been way too long!  Well we are still alive and kicking.  The boys are growing so fast.  They finished up their school year with good grades and great anticipation for a lazy summer break.  Now summer break is almost over and we are slowly introducing the idea of another school year.  They are still doing marital arts and progressing along well, each currently at a different level of the orange belt rank.  They are taking a break from other sports for the summer while mom and dad are trying their hand at coed softball with some family and friends.  And yes we have come to face the reality that we are getting old, thank goodness our games are on Friday nights so we have the weekend to recover!  The best part is hearing the boys cheer us on from the bleachers, it temporarily dulls the aches and pains ; )
We took a mini vacation to a cabin in the Prescott National Forest the first week of July.  It was great to get out of the Phoenix heat and do some hiking, reading, playing army, tree swinging, jacuzziing and enjoying the rain and thunder storms.  We need to do more of that!
Now we are making the best of staying indoors as the summer heat of the desert is in full swing.  Looking forward to any rain and the coolness of fall in a few months.
I've posted some new pictures  under "recent fun".  Enjoy......
