I love Summer!!!

I keep waiting to post thinking that I'll have cute pix or video to add, but don't ever seem to get around to that lately. So here goes (without any visuals) . . . Dana took the week off last week and we played! It was so great. We went to Lagoon, and while it's no Disneyland, it at least provided some diversion and a few thrills.

We also went swimming at our neighbor's pool and to Raging Waters with David and Connie and their kids. We had lots of fun until Christian slipped by the kiddie pool and hit the back of his head on the cement. Since it was bleeding, we took him to Instacare. They felt like he needed staples. The poor kid. We're sitting there in the waiting room and he asks me, "How come all the doctor stuff happens to me?" (Incidentally, his asthma has really kicked in since it happened, and we have been up every night with him since to do breathing treatments...........)

Luckily, though, he was feeling up to the rest of that evening's plans, which were to go and spend some more time with cousins and aunts and uncles. As we were roasting marshmallows outside and the kids were doing sparklers, I just thought, "this feels like summer." It felt good.

We are loving having no set schedule (and no homework) and just doing our thing this summer.
