Way Behind

Since school has been out almost three weeks ago, things around our house have been pretty busy.  Here's what's been going on...

• The first week of summer break, we had VBS at church.  I worked with the 5-year-olds, and we had a pretty amazing group of little people.  Liam had fun in his class, and loved spending mornings with friends.  The girls had lots of good cuddle time with the sweet workers in their room.

• Jon's Aunt Cindi, cousin Amanda, and her boyfriend, Sean, also came to visit that week from Spokane/White Fish.  It was terrific seeing them.  Our buddy Mike also came for the weekend, and it was great to have him here, too.

• Last week, Jon was busy writing curriculum, so it was just me and the kids during the day.  We went to the mall one morning, the zoo the next day, and to the arboretum the next.  Lots of activities.  The kids (and I) do better on the move in the morning and home in the afternoon for lunch and naps. 

• My dear friend, Marybeth, was in town from Denver with her adorable little man, Jack, so we were able to spend time together, too.

• Our little ladies turned one, and we celebrated with a family birthday party for them on Saturday.  Lots of pictures, so that'll have to be a separate post.  But, it went a little something like this...
