Summer Family Photos

Bathing Cuties

Pais has abandoned her little bath seat and is sitting up in the tub now ... or laying on her tummy and swimming with her big brother.

Summer Swimming

Memorial Day weekend was a great one with lots of food, family, fun and, of course, pool time.

This was Paisley's first time in the pool and she loved it!

It isn't often that both Kaylee and Hudson get to join us for a weekend at the same time so that made the weekend extra special. 

This was Ollie's first year to really be comfortable in the pool.  In past years, he has either clung to somebody while in the pool or not really wanted to even get in.  This year he was in a floatie, just kicking away.

Kicking around in a floatie wasn't the only skill that he learned... I guess when you've gotta go, you've gotta go.

Summer

We are getting ready to head to my parents' house for Memorial Day weekend.  Since I start teaching summer camp on Tuesday, and we will be gone on Monday, today is my only summer week day at home with the kiddos.

I've got to get the house picked up and get things packed for the weekend, but we have relaxing together on our schedule too.

Even though I spent my summers teaching and summer camp, I'm looking forward to some fun afternoon and evenings.  We will make the most of our weekends together too!

Letter Recognition with the Wheel

There is nowhere else I'd rather be than hanging out with this kid!

Front Yard Landscaping

We've got many things on our list of home projects that we want to get done this spring and summer.  Riley has cut down several trees since we've moved in so this past weekend he rented a stump grinder.

He had his trusty helper by his side!

 

Once the stumps were removed, Riley redid the edging in the front yard.  My last day of school was on Wednesday so I sent the kiddos to daycare today.  I feel really guilty about sending the kids to daycare, but I really needed a day to get some stuff done.  My first project was getting the front flowerbeds weeded and mulched.  It was a long and hot project, but it looks much better.

Mama Needs a Margarita!

With school winding down things have been super busy for me and cooking like I normally do, just isn't happening.  Enter El Puerto!
