Summer is here!

Well, whoever said that my schedule would get easier when the kids were out of school was out of their mind!!! Abby has joined the world of aquatic sports with her brother Alex. She is playing summer Water Polo. I have been so impressed that she has not missed a single practice and is actually loving it. She has adjusted well to all the laps they have to swim and the various drills - now it's just trying to figure out HOW the game is played! It has been really cute watching Alex with her. He is having fun teaching her about the game - he enjoys being the "big shot senior" and sharing his vast knowledge of the game. He has been really sweet to her. Last week before her first game he and his friend asked her if she knew what to do and after seeing that she didn't, they got the white-board markers out and drew a diagram with x's and o's on my huge dining room mirror. What a great memory for a mom! Ben is busy with Cub Scout Day Camp and Abby with summer school. We are getting ready to go on vacation as a family for the first time in a long time. We are all excited and can't wait to see all our loved ones down south. We are going down for our Nephew Jordan's missionary homecoming and my niece Ryann's (Ted & Kristi's new baby) blessing. We are then going to hang out at the beach, visit the zoo or Sea World and my sweet Annie and I are going to go antiquing! Yeah!! It is a long awaited trip!
