Carter - 5 Months
Getting so big. Now the blocks are in danger of being taken before I get the photo taken.
Summer Fun
We enjoyed four wonderful weeks in Minnesota. They were gone so quickly.
Carter enjoyed swinging at the cabin.
Dylan LOVED S'mores!
Ella and Dylan had fun playing together.
Carter had his first fishing lesson from Grandpa.
Driving the boat was another favorite for Dylan and Carter thought boating was fun too.
Turtle Hunting
Fishing
Carter with his borrowed beads
Swimming. The water was so clear.
Matt captioned this one 'Overtons - get your $#%*(( game face on'. He also suggested that it looks like the cover of a rap album.
The catch.
Painting Fish
Feeding the giraffe at the zoo
Checking out the dinosaurs
Eating outside.
Hanging out in the Hammock
Ziplining
Carter having an outdoor bath. 7 months old.
Pool time
Carter and Grandpa
More cabin art. Interesting that I managed to paint fish and boards but not my toenails.
Water fight
Kayaking with Daddy
The family picture. Getting harder and harder to get a good one.

Automagic
Lots of catching up to do after our four weeks in Minnesota. So while we get settled back into our routines here is a guest post from Matt (He has lots of great stories that he tells me. We are working on ways to get them recorded).
With all our traveling back and forth to the US this summer through airports, and Dylan now needing to use bathrooms, we spent a lot of time in a lot of bathrooms. Dylan always likes to flush the toilet himself, but in most of the airport bathrooms the toilets have automatic flushing capabilities. When Dylan asked me if he could flush the toilet, I told him that we don’t have to because these toilets have automatic flush (we then talked about what automatic means). At the next toilet break as we were walking into the bathroom, Dylan asked me if these toilets were ‘automagic’? Although it is not the correct word, I thought that automagic probably seems much more accurate in the mind of a 3 year old after seeing a toilet flush on its own.
