June

Our first month of summer has gone by super fast! Probably because we have been super busy!

Alli's last day of school was June 2nd. As she was leaving school that afternoon, she says, "I can't believe I am a third grader!" So, I guess the minute you walk out the door on the last day of school you are officially out of that grade and in the next!

Later that same day, we left for Alabama to visit Nana and Papa, Aunt Nikol and Donaven, and Aunt Morgan and Bailey. The girls had tons of fun hanging with their cousins and swimming.

IMG_4092 I love how Alli is totally chillin' behind Donaven...that is how I like to spend my time in the pool!

IMG_4111 A very intense video game...

The day after we arrived home, the girls started swim lessons. Tori and Katie are now very good swimmers! Tori is a little more cautious than Katie, but they are both swimmers now! I see some pool side reading in my very near future! Alli also took lessons so she could become a more efficient swimmer. She did great and swam up to one-third of a mile at the end of her session.

Our family was also very involved with our church VBS. The girls had a lot of fun and I was glad it was a big success.

The trampoline is really no fun in the hot Texas summer....unless you add the water hose.

And since it is so hot, the girls wanted to get a summer haircut.

We just got back from a short trip to San Antonio. We were able to just chill and hang out with family for a few days. It is so nice to go in town and not feel rushed to see everyone. We did get to visit my baby nephew. He is so stinkin' cute...but I did not have the camera so no pics.

I am looking forward to a little slower July and some more fun times with my girlies.
