Our yearly trip to Government town was a blast! Of course we did a lot of swimming, water playing at splash parks, cuddling with Nother Bubba, playing til the late hour, eating too much, introducing Eva to the pool slide (which she could not stop sliding down) and our first: Shooting! Ellie loved learning how to shoot a BB gun. And to make the week even sweeter, we brought home Matt Matt and he quickly made us all like him!

My favorite part of summer!!!

It was the perfect day, back in June, when we had the Farm all to ourselves! We pet, stroked, fed, smelled, and explored many animals that day! Afterwards we had a picnic! Thanks Clarkies for making it so much fun! BTW Eva did not stop long enough for me to grab a snapshot of her, she LOVED the freedom of walking around and peeking through at the animals!!!

Soccer Camp!

IMG_0087 We participated in a great soccer camp this week with Coach Mats! Ellie learned that she could do cartwheels while she played goalie, and Amerie learned that “soccer is hard” But through all the rough and tough, they did great!

We had so much fun this week at soccer camp! The girls insisted that I stay everyday to watch, even though they were in great hands! These coaches were fantastic and really made it fun for the kids! Thanks Little Cleats Soccer!!!

Of course these girls stole the show! Amerie and Ellie did fantastic! And this year was very fun, especially since I drove to dance class twice a week and now Eva wants to take dance! Amerie loves having her three buddies in her class and Ellie is now convinced that jazz will be the next class to try! I have to admit, the summer break will be nice!
