Summer Updates

Summer is in full swing here in Washington. We've been busy with, tennis and golf lessons, and fun activities at the local library, and of course the daily trips to the park and hanging out with the neighborhood kids. All and all it is shaping up to be a fun summer. And there's much more to come. The weather has been beautiful. Still not as much rain as we had heard so much about when we first moved here. I think we brought all the good weather with us from Maine!

The boys spent the first part of June taking tennis lessons. They loved it. And not to brag about my kids but they are pretty good! Elijah especially loved it and wants to take more lessons soon.

They just wrapped up 6 weeks of golf lessons. Good thing too, since Peter bought them those shinny new clubs last summer. At the end of the 6 weeks they had a pizza party, golf tournament, received a t-shirt and a certificate.

Every week our library puts on something amazing for the kids. They have acted out stories, experimented with water, saw miniature horses, and in a few weeks they will sell things at a kids fair. Our theme will be "A Taste of Maine"

We've had so much fun hanging out with new friends and going to our church's weekly BBQ. There's so much more summer left and we intend to enjoy every second of it. There are still swim lessons, soccer practices start, and an over night excursion somewhere. Before you know it, we'll be flying back to Maine!

Mommy and Bear, she LOVED the tennis balls. Seriously there were hundreds all over the place during the lessons. She laughed at them all.
