Happy (Belated) Birthday to Brockton! He's 14 now. That is so crazy to me. He's all grown up and teenager-y. All popular and in Jr. High.

I've decided to have a niece/nephew and aunt days this summer using a little of our stimulus check. I used to take them one by one before school started and would buy them an outfit and go to lunch. They used to love that, so I'm doing it again. I think I'll incorporate a sleepover and go get them after work, stay up late watching movies and eating junkfood. Then the next day we can do basically whatever they choose. Go bowling, swimming, to the arcade, to the movies, just whatever. I'm quite excited about it.

Allie and Nathan came over again on Tuesday. We had a lot of fun. The pool at my apartment complex is finally open so they went swimming. I got a few fun pictures of them. It was nice for me to sit there and read in the shade. We were the only ones there for a while, then another family came and then a family came with like 6 kids, so we left.

This picture was cool, too bad I cut off his head. Nathan found a butterfly.
and he picked it up. (see how Allie is looking at me to see if I'm going to yell at him. Too funny.)
