Hooray for Summer!!!

Play time in our pool

Haley riding her new princess bike


I'm cool as a cucumber

Am I supposed to wear these or just look cute in them?



A play date with the Nelson children. In this picture is my friend Lisa with Erin's children Jackson and Olivia and the Shuford girls. Derek (Olivia's twin) is the only child not in the picture.

I know that it has been a while since I last posted so I'll create several posts to make up for lost time. The girls and I are enjoying our summer together. Haley and Lauren love having me at home and I love being home with them. It is one of the perks of teaching : ) Haley just went to Vacation Bible Retreat last week and had a wonderful time learning bible verses that incorporated the theme for the week: Children of the Light. Haley came home singing new songs and full of excitement. She told me all about the bible stories and showed me all of her arts and crafts every day. Lauren and I joined her for mass every morning and we stayed all day (8 to 11:30) with her for two of the days. Haley is also taking swimming lessons in the afternoon for two weeks. She feels like such a big girl because she gets to do things that sissy is too little to do. Other than that we've been spending lots of time at the library, the park, and our pool. The girls are participating in the summer reading club at the library so every time they read for seven nights they get to choose a goody from the treasure box at the library. Daddy has been busy working but he gets to have fun with us girls on the weekends. Poor daddy!
