Swimming, Swimming, Swimming!

So is has been a good 20 days since the last up date. I am sure everyone has stopped checking my blog but I will do this post regardless. Well now that I am back to 3 kids full time I seem to be a bit busier. I get up at 5am every morning and most days I still don't have enough time (and I can't do 4am). What have we been up to??? I'll give you 3 guesses. You got it, Swimming! Swim team practice every morning gets us up and going but then we have the rest of the day to fill which usually consists of a trip to the neighborhood pool.

Oh yea then we had a swim team field trip to you guessed it, the water park up the road. On Wed. we have play group which for the summer has turned into a pool hopping event where we get to test out all the other neighborhood pools. Every now and again we mix it up with a wild trip to the cheap movies or a stop off at the library. But I guess when you live in a hot climate swimming is one of the best things to be doing.

Okay we are doing a few other things in between. I was called as one of the nursery leaders. I totally love it (really I do). There's no pressure and it's easier then making sunbeams sit through sharing time. We also had a fun visit from Uncle Jeremy. Jeremy was a trooper and sat through the 6 am swim meet and then the boys did a little high speed Karting. We don't have any big family trips planned for this summer but that's okay we had three big trips and several small ones in the past 8 months. A few of us will get on an airplane here and there to Vegas or CA etc. Add a couple of family visits here in Texas into the mix, and the fall will be here before we know it. If our daily lives get any more exciting I will do my best to post it!

Onward!

Stuff From All Over!

As the school year comes to an end I seem to be getting busier. I have put off blogging impart because I have so much going on and impart because I don’t know where to start, I’m so back logged. I’ll just jump in with a few pics from the last two weeks.








I have been telling the girls I will take them to their school skate night all year. It came down to the last one so I had to make good on my word. We had fun eating cotton candy and Carli learned to Rollerblade. Carli is almost a 1st grader(Crazy!) Amy is almost a 4th grader (crazier!!!). These are a couple of their friends Monet' and Joelle who live accross the street and are in the same grades.


Our first two swim meets were so fun (well at least for me). The girls did great and it is crazy to see their improvment in just one short week. We have meets every Sat. untill July, their progress will be fun to track.









Carli had Kindergarten Graduation. She loved school this year. Carli learned a lot, made tons of friends and changed so much. We have full day Kindergarten here so there were many tired days but she has done well. We were lucky to have a great teacher in Mrs. Stewart. Where did my baby Carli go?
