To explain the bruises and scratches...

My kids have been having a lot of fun this summer. It's just too bad they sustained injuries throughout most of it. Again, I promise we don't beat our kids.
Just to catch you up on some of our summer fun. Here is Josh at the Cub Scout Bike Rally. He raced a good race and felled a good fall? Yeah, he got beat up pretty bad after a collision with another biker. A couple days later, he was playing on a merry go round park apparatus and fell yet again wearing a swim suit, so scratches all up the side of his ribs. Poor guy.

Here's yet another reason our kids have been getting new scratches. Look at the cute little kitty! This is Dot. See the dot on her little head? She's a sweetie. The kids love her, despite the scratching, biting, etc. I don't know if she loves us yet. Hmmm. Grant can be kinda scary.Bruises here we come. Who knew you could get so beat up going down a hill at high speed down a bunch of plastic? We (meaning Adam) had a ton of fun connecting several slip 'n slides to max out our hill side enjoyment. Yeah, one is never enough. Especially when the kids start their pre-slide run at the mailbox 25 meters away. Here are a couple of pics and a video I'm sure you'll enjoy.

Nice! The slip 'n' slide looks awesome! Eliza is covered in bruises as well but with no real good excuse. I swear I don't beat her either. She just has a way with totally banging up her legs. Kids.
