Visit after visit after visit!

As the boys finish summer camp, family after family after family arrive for visits!

Derek enjoys the last few days with Mr. Ryan

Free swim!

Color war!  Go NY Blue!




















Benji gives Josh's bed a try.

Amy comes over for some boy time.

Way to rile them up right before bedtime, Amy!

The very last day.

A great summer at the J!

Pizza face

A visitor in the backyard

The boys had fun watching him hide.

Extra house guests = sleepover in Derek's room.
 The boys requested fish sticks for breakfast --- well, there's breakfast for dinner, so what not dinner for breakfast?!  Since our freezer decided to defrost over night, there was LOTS of food to cook.
Fish filet.

Tennis time!


Wrong strings, kid.

It's all about the net.


Fun at Windjammer Park.






Cooling off after the hot morning...





Ice cream social at Aunt Susie and Roberto's!


Spending some time at Grandma and Papa's house.

Derek was really into the Olympic Water Polo!
He listened to the rules and was truly following along!

This guy --- not so much.

But he'll watch anything with his Uncle Keithy Weithy.

Even if it means watching alongside a sleeping Keith.

Maybe after this...he'll reconsider his time with Uncle Keith.

Uncle Scary

Of course, it wouldn't be a Sorensen visit without a trip to Hollywood Beach!

























Nothing like a nap on the beach.

Fountain time with Bub.

Toe-ing around with the water.









These two sure are cute together!

Back to B & Z for some games, fun, and naps!

Derek challenges Bubby to a game of checkers.

Two nappers that are too cute.

Which nap is better?  The couch or the beach?!

You weren't really trying to sleep, Jacob, were you?




Thanks, Lisa, for building the terrarium.

He'll do anything for his Grandma.

Just as the Sorensens leave, the Many Margoli arrive!

It's all VERY exciting when the cousins get together!

Well, for most people. 

Come on girlies...get here already!





















They're here --- let's swim!

They're talking about it.
