Fun with friends from far and near

Colleen and I have been friends since we were born. Our mothers taught together while they were pregnant so we were actually friends before birth I guess. :) Anyway, the friendship has spanned 34 years and even though we don't get to see each other very often, I feel like we always pick up where we left off.

Colleen and her two sons, Cameron and Bryce, came down with her parents to stay in a beach house in IB for a week this summer. They came to visit us and have dinner one night and the kids had a great time together.

Here's Ty chillin' like a villain. :)

Bryce, on the left, if you can believe it, is only 15 months old and huge! Both boys are as sweet as can be and all the kids really got along well. Ty's been having a hard time with sharing but for some reason, this night, he couldn't wait to share his toys with the boys. Maybe he's growing up!

A few days later, Garrett organized a water fight in our backyard with some neighbors and everyone really got into it. The day before, our neighbor Brent sent a text message with his kids all holding huge soaker guns. So Garrett went out and bought these big water guns for the kids and had a trial run of how to pull the trigger. As you can see, Ty had no problem with this activity and couldn't wait to point his water gun and blast someone, anyone. :)

Here's Brent being attacked!

Susan and Matt came over with Colin and joined in the fun. Colin wasn't sure at first but enjoyed all the action and everyone got really wet!
