Man! We had a great (busy) summer this year! We had decided to do a “stay-cation” instead of the beach for a number of reasons. (oil included) It ended up being so much fun! I encourage you all to explore fun places right here in Alabama! Here are some of the fun activities that the Warren crew were up to!
The summer started with Michael competing in a 100 bike race. whew! He didn’t have a whole lot of time to train, but still made it 75 miles! I was so proud! There is no way I could do that!!! The boys has fun playing with the toys at the finish line. 😉
Trevor celebrated 7 year at the Lego Store. Fun for all!
We had some baby birds born in our back patio and watched them grow and finally fly away!
We got to go to the lake with friends and had the best time! The boys even got up on trainer skis!!!
Celebrated Memorial Day with LOTS of family. Just the way I like it. I think we topped out at over 20+ people. Cousins Conclave 2010, baby!
Headed up to the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville for the Star Wars exhibit. We are a family of nerds, so it was equally enjoyed by all! 🙂
Had a blast celebrating StopSMA’s win in the Pepsi Refresh Challenge! They won 250K twice to go towards research for a cure!
Discovered a rather LARGE hornet’s nest in our yard. Fortunately, Michael’s chem gear came in handy. I hunkered down in the car with my camera.
Spent the day at Alabama Adventure where both boys learned to turn flips underwater. Quite impressed!
Went camping at Lake Guntersville. Michael had gotten a trail-a-bike, so we could all ride together! We also took quite a few day trips from Guntersville, including: Cathedral Caverns, Little River Canyon and DeSoto State Park. The caverns were AWESOME!!
That’s wraps up our summer! It was fun and busy, and loved every minute of it!
75 plus miles later!
Happy 7th Birthday, Trevor!
I want it. 🙁

Ok, so maybe we went overboard a little...
I love the smell of insecticide in the morning.
Fun times at the Stop SMA party. Love my girls!
Our new toy: a tag-a-long bike. The kids love it and now the whole family can ride together!
