Touch a Truck and Summer Fun

As we were getting ready for our big California road trip we also wanted to get a bunch of local summer fun in and in our area that is pretty easy to do.  :)  So we went to Touch a Truck, attended a couple VBSs, had friends over, had water fun and just enjoyed being out of school. 

Jake testing out a Police motorcycle

"Look Mom, no hands!" - this is so AJ, my little dare devil

So many trucks, so little time

The favorite thing to do for most of the kids is blow the horns...so basically its a very loud event :)

Waiting in line to go into a fire truck the kids got to try on some gear

Our little fireman

This kid LOVES firetrucks

I think AJ has been looking at too many comic books...superhero pose :)

Love how giddy these boys get checking out all the awesome vehicles

They loved the helicopter and the best part was just after we took the picture they got to see it take off right in front of them...they flipped out..in a good way :)

Jake really wanted to see the beefed up Storm Tracker truck.  These are the crazy vehicles that chase after tornadoes.

The vbs that both of our boys got to attend was a super hero one.  They both LOVED it of course!  AJ sure adores Captain America!

AJ enjoying his masks.  And for the record they are both super happy in the car because they are waiting at Sonic for their milkshakes.  A late night, after vbs, summer is here treat.  :)

Now this is how you enjoy summer!  Everyone playing in the backyard with a toy Sprinkler :)

Crazy Man

The boys and their friend all taking turns jumping over it

And of course the neighborhood Splash Pad is always a hit

So lucky this is down the street from our house

So, does Jake look excited at all?  While Ryan took AJ to a baseball game I got to take Jake to see the new Avengers movie in the theater...he was REALLY excited.  :D
