Summer Fun

We've been having lots of fun in the sun and out of the sun too ~ it's HOT here.  and so so so humid.  i grew up in texas and i thought i knew what humidity was.  nope!  pensacola has taught me a thing or two about humidity like a) its miserable.  b) its acutally possible for your skin to almost never be dry!  c) layering a tank under ANYTHING you wear is a must because you aren't going to walk from the house to the car without sweating. gross.  d) did i mention its miserable?  always learning i tell ya! ;)

I haven't been great about taking pictures....boo!  One more thing about getting back to blogging is i'm hoping to get back to taking more everyday pictures.  as much as i love pictures of major events/milestones, i so love to look back at pictures of our everyday life!  We've been at the beach, swimming, bowling, playing in the sprinkler & with water guns in the front yard.......just having fun!

 {getting a picture of all 3 where you can actually see their faces? not so easy! ;)}

 {fun @ the beach!}

{i can't get enough of this little guy! he's so much fun!}

One of the many downsides of living on the gulf coast in summer is hurricane season.  we have been so blessed the last 3 summers to not really have seen any tropical "action" come this way!  this year has started off a little crazy already!!  tropical storm debbie threatened to mess with us but thankfully ended up not hitting us at all.  but she did stir up some fun waves!  the water here is really tame ~ little to no waves. (as you can see in the pic above!)  we headed out to the beach to check out the "storm water" when debbie was brewing and here's what we found......

 {i could have stood there and watched forever......there was something calming about the roar of the water!}

{and a pic of littlest just because!}

I'm not a big fan of the heat, humidity, bugs....what's that?  you couldn't have guessed??....i know, i know!  but i am so grateful for 3 bouncing boys that help me to see summer on the gulf coast in a more positive light and they inspire me to find ways to enjoy it.  this is after all exactly where God has us for now!

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.      ~1 Thessalonians 5:16-18~
