Beach

Sun, sand, swimming. We love it. :)












End of July

One of the biggest parts of the end of July was Taylor attended day camp for the first time! For a week, she went to our church from 9-4 where Spring Hill hosted a day camp for kids. She had a great week (I was a little nervous how it would go!), and got to try lots of new things!

Dropping her off on the first day.

And still all smiles on the last day!

She got the 'perseverance' award from her counselors. :)

While Taylor was at camp, it was a full week of just me and Camryn hanging out!
We went shopping together


Went to the beach




Played with sprinklers


Took a nap together :)

Played with new 'rocket copters'  in the driveway (I only had to retrieve it off the roof once ;-))


Camryn was always happy when we would pick Taylor up, though. She definitely missed her sister!

Cuties at bedtime - love it when Taylor reads the bedtime story


Out shopping together

The girls and I got a fun invite out to a co-workers cottage on a lake. It was fun for me to catch up with teacher friends, and to have the girls have wonderful shallow water to play in!





Even got a little paddleboarding in!

Yoga! :-)
Fun with friends!

We also had a beach play date with Annie, Chris, and Liz. Perfect morning!



LOVE summer!!

Lake Swim weekend at Mem's

Jeff, Jen and I planned to have our families hang out at Mem's in July again, and it happened to be the same weekend as the Goguac Lake swim.

Mem and I decided a few days before to sign up for the swim! Headed out to walk to the beach where the race started


At the start

Cheering crew


Turns out I won my age group (after not swimming since last summer!)


And so did Mem!


Camryn actually made it into the paper the next day as she was captured in the background of one of the lake swim pictures :D

The rest of Saturday was a lot of play time for the cousins.
 Aunt Jen painted toenails. :)

S'mores at night for our family :)



It was a fun, fast weekend!
