We had a fun week filled with lots of sun, water, and a little sand.  I celebrated another birthday this week and enjoyed some extra time at the pool.  Warm weather and going to the pool are two of my favorite things so I can't think of a better way to celebrate.  We invited several friends and enjoyed a beautiful Minnesota summer day at the pool.  It was one of those days that I will remember when the weather turns cold and snowy.  Thank you all for the birthday texts, phone calls, cards, Facebook posts, and gifts I received from friends and family.  It was a fun birthday!

We also had our first fishing excursion with friends this week.  Luke and Liam, especially, have been asking to go fishing all summer.  We do not have fishing poles or any other type of fishing supplies, but we went with friends who had enough supplies to share and we had a blast.  The boys loved it.  They were putting the worms on their hooks and learning to take the fish off the hooks by the end of the day (especially Liam and Luke).  I think the purchase of fishing poles is definitely in our future!
