Summer Fun

We've been having an AWESOME summer. We've been keeping busy doing lots of different things around town. We've also enjoyed some very lazy mornings! The girls have been so much fun to be with (when they're not fighting of course :0)) and I'm really going to miss them when school starts!

One day we decided it would be fun to have a "Messy Morning." So we put our bathing suits on and did lots of messy activities outside. We started out playing with liquid chalk in the driveway, moved on to bubbles, painted large cardboard pieces I had saved, and finished off making fun designs with shaving cream inside a wading pool.

Here are some pictures from our outdoor gallery!

We go to the pool at least two times a week. Anabelle & Elise have become good swimmers and Sadie LOVES jumping in on her own with her floaties. I don't even have to catch her anymore. She goes right under and pops up with a big smile on her face! Here are a few pictures from when our sweet little cousin Marena visited and Anabelle doing her funny dance in the splash pool.

Just yesterday, we went with friends to a local outdoor mall to play in their fountains. The kids had a ball. Poor Sadie would look straight down into the holes and get blasted by the water. After a while, she learned to use her foot instead.
