Oh What Do You Do In The Summertime...

Just a couple of weeks into "summer" and it seems we haven't stopped. Our June calendar has been filled with lots of stuff to do, but we've had a fun time. Swimming lessons (even amidst the rain and cold temps...and a pool heated to 90) have been so fun for the kids. We signed Tanner up for the first time this year and he's hilarious. The first day he was giggling like a little girl as he was getting in the water, he was so excited! They love their teacher!

This week Brad is in St. George for a basketball camp at Dixie State.....did I mention it was for a WHOLE WEEK!!! So far, so good....that is to say that my kids are still in one piece! We can't wait until Friday night!

Meagan has been playing machine pitch this summer and is loving it (and why wouldn't she? she's a sports fanatic!!) Apparently I haven't taken my camera to any of the games, so no pictures for this post, but she's got a couple games left and hopefully I'll remember to grab the camera. Brad holds a basketball camp every summer and this year Meagan was old enough to go. What a fun time! She was a little disappointed because she thought she was going to be sleeping over at the school..."camping". She's really improving and absolutely LOVES basketball.

Lindsay is Mrs. Friendly! She's lucky enough to have a lot of fun girls her age to play with, so she's constantly on the go, either here or there with her buddies! She loves her swimming lessons and is doing really well.

Tanner is Tanner, getting rougher all the time. Obviously I'm not going to let him drag Ellie around the room (or down the stairs for that matter) by her feet, even if he says he's being nice. He is a cutie though, and loves that his sisters are home all day....his personal entertainment!

Ellie still isn't walking; such a wimp. She'll take one step and then drop to her hands and crawl. Oh Ellie! She is definitely a momma's girl! It's nice that she loves me so much, but at the same time, I can't get anything done with her pulling on my pants or wanting to be held all day.

That's it from us for now!

Pure joy written across his face!

Linds at swim lessons

I found her this way...I think she was pretty proud of herself too.

What a cutie!

I wish I had a better picture of Meag at bball camp, but the others were blurry.

Oh boy! I promise you we DID NOT touch his hair after he got out of the pool....it just stuck up in all directions, so funny! (We gave him a haircut the next afternoon!)
