Under the Stars

I truly think we are having one of our funnest summers to date.  Swimming, jumping on the trampoline, long lazy days at the library- we've been enjoying it all.  We have new neighbors, the Bennetts, with a little girl Nadia's age and a 7 year old boy and Kade, who was born the exact day/year as Rowan.  They come over a lot for impromptu play dates and that has been a lot of fun for the kids. 

My mom was kind enough to bring a projector that they weren't using over the summer at the school and we've now enacted outdoor movie nights.  The first night we invited over some neighbors, the Bennetts and Jessica Mullen with her brother and roommate and let Rowan watch Jurassic Park for the first time.  It was a lot of fun.  We got some used home theater speakers and set them up on the deck so you could feel the vibrations from the subwoofer during the exciting parts.  We hope to have several more parties with this set up in the future.  Here's some pictures of us testing it out before it got dark.


Rowan parked himself right by the subwoofer to get the full experience.  He really liked the movie and only had to come snuggle a little bit.  The girls aren't quite ready for this one, so they went to bed early.  The next movie will be a little more age appropriate.
