Highland pond

By our apartment there is a cute little pond that we decided to check out one day with Lance's family. One of the main reasons we went was to fish. My sister in law's kids have never fished before and it was on there summer to do list so we had to do it.  Lance got it all set up and each kid took a turn casting out. After about one try each and no bites they were bored and wanted to swim instead. I don't blame them for wanting to swim over fishing, I find it rather boring myself. :)

cute as a botton baby nathan



Nixon loves his Aunt Sarah

He also loves being outside
Enjoying a lovely summer's day



Nixon has been enjoying the attention he's been getting
Lance got this inflatable boat a few summers ago and accidentally put 2 holes in it. He got a patch kit hoping that would do the trick, but sadly after the kids were in the boat for only 15 minutes the patch couldn't hold up any longer and started losing air. Lance was a little distraught about this.



Look at those white sexy legs :) 
Wishing he could be out there swimming with the rest of the
kids
 


Finally got his turn in the water

The water was a little colder than the nice heated pool in Arizona, but
he still enjoyed it









just because there's a hole in the boat doesn't mean you can't still play on it....

or lay on it

sweet, innocent Clara

my my that is one sexy man ;)
 After the pond we came back to our place and had Lance's famous chicken. I got this winger sauce recipe off pinterest and tried it back when Nixon was first born and we loved it! Ever since then that has become our go to meal when we get together with family and friends.
I can tell these boys are going to be best buds and little hooligans together

The boys had better things to look at apparently

Everyone patiently waiting for a piece of Lance's famous bbq chicken


Even though no fish were caught, we still had a good day of swimming and eating yummy chicken.
