Summer Lovin'/Had Me a Blast

It's been a great summer so far. The weather has allowed us to be outside quite a bit, which Mari just loves. Cory built us a great porch, so we've spent even more time outside. I wish we had a few before pictures, because the difference is just unbelievable. I'm really proud of him and pleased with the result.

I'm keeping the blog post short because I'm putting a lot of information on the captions.

Here are a few pictures of our adventures so far this summer.

The front of our house before. . .

. . . and after. And we've even done more since then,
but I don't have those pictures yet.

The superstar hanging out by her Turtle Sandbox. Lito and Lita
got this for her and I thought she'd go crazy in the sand. She loves to play, but
hates to have her hands dirty. She'll play forever with the "spoon" (shovel), but if a
grain of sand gets on her hands, "Mommy. Yuck."

Not sure when this picture is from, but I love it.
This is one of my favorite dresses of Marisol.

Who is it?
Lito and Lita got her this house and we finally set it up outside.
It is now in our basement. She's got it set up with a light, chair, table, and everything. It's
her favorite breakfast spot.

Mommy and Daddy had to get in the house too.
Lita can't believe we fit.
The funniest part was us getting out.
There are no pictures of us.

This is her new funny face. Tia said I had to post this.
Too cute.

I love her pigtails.
I think she looks like Boo from Monster's Inc.

Marisol's first bicycle. Lita said she needed it
to help in her motor skills development. We ended up
at Toys R Us that night.
Spoiled?

Daddy says she can't ride without her helmet.

She loves to Whee!
Here's her own personal obstacle course.
It was supposed to be for Lita and Lita's house, but. . .
. . . it went south.

I LOVE THIS FACE!!!!
