Summer Fun!

This week has been a little slow for Blog opportunities. For one, I have started going into O'Hara off and on to get ready for work to officially start next Friday (only one more week of summer . . . eeek!). I have also been working very hard to turn my Blog into a beautiful photo album using Blurb.com, which means that I have been spending hours in front of the computer trying to figure it all out. I have finally made it over the learning curve hump and I am cruising along now. I have more than half of my 107 blog posts put into the album already!

My kids have been having a blast playing at home with each other, riding bikes and jumping on the trampoline. They really get a long well when it is just the three of them. I did have a free day today though, so we went on a little summer adventure.

Tennis, skateboarding, Slurpee's and the park!





Max is getting really good at skateboarding!





We really think that tennis is Sam's sport!
I am always amazed at how good he is at it!

I love how she always has a smile on her face though.

Max turned the whole sand area into a well thought out river, island, mountain, lake masterpiece! What an engineer!

  1. Looks like fun Julie! Max is a genius in the sand. We will have to bring a racket with us so Ellie and Sam can play tennis together. Liz

  2. Glad to hear you've got that Blurb book in motion - isn't that the coolest? I just got my 2008 book back....now to work on the 2007 edition that I skipped over!
