A little summer fun...






The twins seem to have this "love/hate" relationship with water.  They don't mind splashing around in the pool, but when it comes to sprinklers they just can't get used to water falling and/or dripping on them; they're usually running and screaming in horror at the very sight of any sort of sprinkler.  So much to my delight I was able to capture these few rare and precious pictures of them actually enjoying themselves in this $1 store sprinkler find - granted the water is barely shooting out... but a sprinkler is a sprinkler.

Now Samantha on the other hand I believe was actually some sort of water animal in another life.  This girl loves, I mean truly L-O-V-E-S the water so thank goodness we have a pool or I'm sure we'd actually have to move in with family during the summer just to use their pool everyday.  Sam is now taking swim lessons from her aunt Marci - sorry City of Mesa, you just weren't cuttin' it - and already her aunt is super impressed with how well she swims.

We are so excited for summer - now if we could just turn down the furnace that would be great!

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Our prima ballerina!

Miss Sammy had her 2nd dance recital with Miss Annie's dance class. I was beaming ear to ear watching her dance her heart out. She was absolutely beautiful, graceful and completely poised. I'm so glad she enjoys dance class and can't wait to start up the next session.

Another before and after... this one is not so dramatic...

Before: 4 bandanas (2 zebra print & 2 pink polka dot) After: 1 very ADORABLE bandana dress and 1 super STYLISH bandana shirt Now I know this is not a new concept here, but I am really quite proud of my little sewing creation. So proud that I'm sure the girls are going to be screaming and chanting 'put down the bandana and just walk away'. These were oh so (and sew) easy!!! I'm seeing one in every color and pattern for the girls... oh the possibilities!!
