I have a bunch of pictures from the last few weeks, but no exciting stories to go with them, so this is mostly a pic post. Probably our last for a while: we're already swimming in boxes, and have many, many more to fill between now and the 31st. Then I'm not sure what my computer access will be like for a while.
First, some summerness. We went with Allison + entorage to the casino/race track for the 4th to watch the races before a spiffy fireworks show. It really was a great show -- I don't know if I haven't seen a good show in a while or what, but I thought it was the best one I'd *ever* seen! Scott was more interested in the horses and kept asking where they were during the fireworks. Can't you just hear them begging, "Let us out!"?

Something in the works??

Summertime feet:

Summertime head: (post run-in with a big stick)

Scott in his Jetsonsmobile-meets-Flinstonesmobile. Don't you love the proportions of these cars?

For our year on the road, we bought Scott a portable bedroom: a dog tent! haha. It's just the right size, and he's slept in it just about every night since we got it. Here's hoping it'll ease the shock of being a nomad at least a little bit.

Scotty: "Don't even think about snapping that shot." AWESOME bribery material for 10 years from now...

More bribery material. This is a 90's version of Scott. Nerd-face Tilton.

Here's a taste of what Jer gets to do all day. Before:

Getting REALLY excited about attention from dad:




Wish us luck with our move! We're mostly excited, but of course a little sad to leave favorite friends and places behind. We'll miss Des Moines!

Poor little Scott's forehead!!! I think that James looks just like you Jennie! He is so darling! Good luck with all the packing. It is such a liberating feeling when it's all done! Your blog has made me homesick for Iowa! So many fun things to do in the Summer! Love you guys!
Gee Jennie. I have a photo just like the one of Scott with a bog bump on Jonas' head! Must be a boy thing.... :) Good luck with your move!
I love the tent bed-room! And wow, James is getting big! I can see more of Jer in him in these pictures :)
How nice to have been so close to Jer's work/school for the past while. (we've got a similar thing going with Nathan right now, yay) Best wishes for packing, moving, settling in.
I love the pictures!! They were all great! Your boys are adorable!! You know it seems to me that the picture of Scotty and his goose egg would be a good story! How come we couldn't hear that one? Well good luck with the move!! I promise it goes by fast! Before you know it you will be back in Des Moines for graduation... and James will be 1 AHHH!! Time flies!! Good luck! and travel safe!!
