Summer activities 2009--and it is only June!!

After living here for 8 years, we decided to paint the house. We chose a dark green with creme trim, and it really turned out great. It is like a whole new house!
We got the idea to put a shed in the backyard when we got the house painted--thinking that they could paint the shed as well. However, Mike decided to build the shed himself, and thus we will paint it ourselves when it is done. It will really free up a lot of room in the garage.
Carson and I love to watch "Yo Gabba Gabba". We both love the "New Friends" episode with Jack Black in it. Carson sings the songs at the top of his lungs, and he is pretty good! I love our bonding time :)

We spend a lot of time outside, and eat out on the deck whenever we can during the summer. Carson loves to play with our next door neighbors; Jett, Jaylee, and JuJu. He has recently started looking for them every day by standing up on the deck railing and yelling their names. So much for any backyard peace, Lopez family! Sorry we eat breakfast so early. :)
The Orchard Town Center does a Friday night concert series where you bring your own chairs and come hang out for some great music. Last week, Hazel Miller performed and it was so much fun! There is a little train that drives around all year long, and Carson loves it. Jeff, Carson, and I took a ride on Friday night in the caboose. We plan on going back most Fridays because it is so convenient and fun!

Summer is the best! And there is SO MUCH MORE TO COME, which is even better.
