Anna Kate began to love the water this weekend – yay!

Noelle faced her fears with reptiles and bugs this weekend, that’s for sure.  Let’s see, she caught a frog by the leg, a lizard by the tail, a grasshopper, and I think that’s it.  She told me I needed to face my fears too, and I told her no way!  *Isn’t Rara’s inside out braid cool?  I need to learn how to do that… she’s the only person I know who does braids this way, and the funny thing is, she can’t do a normal braid!

Dad played like he was a shark with the kids in the pool… they loved it!

Drink it all Noelle?  Don’t leave a sip.  Oh my family!  Aren’t they great!

We had a wonderful mini-vacation and can’t thank Uncle Fred and Aunt Elsie enough for making it super special and fun!  They truly thought of everything.  The 4th of July is by far Noelle’s favorite holiday.  At Thanksgiving and Christmas she asks when the 4th of July will be here.  How cool is that?  Thanks again!
