Summer has hit!

Summer is here! Time to catch up on the blog. Check out the new posts cause there are a few.



Playing in the kiddie pool at the grandparents. Can you say soggy diaper!



Imagine if a kiddie pool made us that happy! Playing at the beach. No sand eaten this time.



Important new for Diabetics on Medicare! Up close so we don't miss the important tv shows!



Mom got her a swing and she loves it! She has to do the buckles and gets mad if you help her. Since the roof over the patio is so tall we put on some extra rope which makes the swing a lot bigger. Nice cause you only have to push her once ever 5 minutes or so! haha

Friends Birthday Party



Kylee went to a friends birthday party recently. She had a lot of fun! Gotta play in the kitchen. The bubbles are a water bottle cut in half with a washcloth put over the end with a rubber band. Dip in soap and it takes less coordination for little kids to blow bubbles. They figure out fast too that you have to blow out, not suck in!


Made some slimy stuff that was fun to play with, Kylee didn't want to touch it though so Richard got to help her. They made a ball pit with balloons that the kids had a lot of fun in!

Sedona

Richards mom went to a painting class in Sedona to learn a new technique and so we went up to visit her since it was close to Phoenix. It was fun and good to get out of the heat.



Kylee running around after being stuck in the car. We went mini golfing too. Kylee just wanted to help everyone by picking up your ball for you. Oh well, was still fun!


Sedona is a fun place to take photos, just harsh light if you go at the wrong time of day. Kylee busy playing more after sitting in the car.

Discharge Shirt Printing



Here are some shirts I have been working on with discharge printing. It is a process of adding chemicals to the normal plastisol ink in order to bleach the color out of the shirt under the ink. It makes the colors brighter, is more comfortable to wear, and lasts longer. The downside is that it is expensive, difficult to work with, and stinky because you add Zinc Formaldehyde Sulfoxylate, which of course contains formaldehyde. Cool stuff, kinda a pain. Good result though.
