We have discovered that getting together with friends definitely got a lot more difficult once we all had children. So, having a bbq at our house with everyone seemed like a perfect solution. All the kids would play contently and all the adults could catch up with each other......boy, are we naive or what?! Actually, it was great to chat with friends in bits and pieces in between the children yelling and running and, of course, most of all they were doing lots of playing!
Jett and Braden have a fascination with the pool. Splashing from the sidelines just wasn't satisfying enough to our boys!
So, Keily and Drake gladly took Jett and Drake in the pool. 
We aren't quite sure why we bother, but this was our best attempt at a group picture of Keily, Colt, Drew, Luke, Drake, Braden, and Jett. Despite the fact that the picture didn't turn out great, this was even a feat to accomplish. Braden and Jett were bribed with a brownie, and Jett is feeding some to Braden here. At one point we brought Pepper out to get the kids' attention. 2 words describe that scenario.....Bad Idea!! She leaped from couch to couch to couch with the children sitting on them in shear terror!
Braden was actually sharing one of his favorite rides with Jett. He was just making sure Jett's hat was adjusted before he went for a cruise around the kitchen.
Just to document in writing, KEILY IS BRADEN'S FUTURE BABYSITTER. WE HAVE DIBS ON HER! She is amazing with children and Braden obviously loves her. We need to rush the whole potty training thing along because the rule is Braden has to be out of diapers for her to babysit. Thanks Keily and Drake for doing such an awesome job entertaining the kids!
Braden seems a bit puzzled by the fact that a 10-year-old could fit in his fire truck, so to eliminate any squabbles over it......
He just jumped right in with Jett and shut the door. Atta boy! Love it when they share!
