summer snapshot - week 3

impromptu swim party at our neighbors, including cannon ball contest.
trip to the mall for father's day gifts, john got in some play time at the 'play area',
and we got to have some of our favorite mall pretzels.



trips to the library, and lots of reading.
the kids read every morning on the couch when they wake up -
i love it, it is very peaceful.

christopher and andrew mowing at the new house, ella sweeping at the new house.
yes, we are moving!!
most likely at the end of the summer - more details to come.
using our groupon on it's due date at one of our favorite mexican restaurants.
playing board games, christopher teaching the others how to play blokus.
fun pool tricks off the diving board.
ella creating a fun 'face on her plate' with her breakfast foods.
john john waking up early one morning and lounging with lady on the couch.
friday night summer league basketball game.
andrew caught a pass for what would have been a great shot, 
and the ball got stuck between the glass and the rim, so unexpected-then pretty funny.
going out to eat afterwards with our wonderful friends on the team.
shopping for granite for the new kitchen at the new house.
it has been busy keeping up with both houses - two yards, two pools,
planning a kitchen remodel at the same time as having all the kids home for the summer.
but, i feel so blessed to have this time to get it all done before school starts up again.
i would love to be blogging more but i have been so busy with all the appointments
and research that are involved with a kitchen remodel, plus having all the kids home.

i wish i had more time, so many end of the school year events i would like to post on.
but, i am at least committed to the summer snapshot series,
and hope to catch up on everything else...
"when i have time" (i.e. possibly never, but maybe in the fall:)
