Big slides and other summer fun

Here's a compilation of summer pictures; some that are recent and others that I just never got around to posting. We went to a festival last weekend, and the kids had a blast on the big slide.

Charlotte loves, loves, LOVES corn on the cob.

Sucking out every last drop of juice.

This was right before she started screaming as I had to pry the cob out of her death grip. She had started biting hunks out the end of the cob.

Here are some random pictures taken over the summer. Jack's sunglasses lost a lens, and for some reason he and Charlotte both thought it was cool to go walking around like this.

 Too cute for words.

 Snuggly warm towels after water play in the back yard.

Jack at nearby Rehm Park, where they have these cool hand-powered trains out on weekends. Rehm pool didn't open for family swim until 10:30 or 11:00, so it was convenient to have the park next door to play at until the pool opened.

 And finally, some cute Lou pictures. So sweet of Charlotte and Lou communing on the floor.

 The kids' outdoor toys came in handy for Lou in the hot weather too.

 Awwwww...
