Thankful for summer

We are so glad school is out for the summer. Well at least it sort of is. Greg and I wrapped up our classes and I'm ready to spend time on research and my independent study for the summer. I'm also excited to have a lot of time with Evangeline. She's so sweet, but so busy now-a-days. We've spent the sunny days at several parks around Columbia. She loves being outside and spending time in the back yard. We also have been playing Legos and puzzles in the basement on rainy days.

We have replaced Sammy the frog after Evangeline hid her in the house somewhere and we were not able to relocate her.

Swimming and snacks in the back yard with Claire.

Cookies from the Farmer's Market. To be fair she also likes broccoli and asparagus.

When it rains we have been playing Legos in the basement.

On the playground at church.

Hanging with my cute girl at the park on the inch worm.

Sweet goofy girl.

Eating more cookies.

Cuddle time with books and her new Sammy the frog.

More time with Claire at the park.

On the "big girl" swings. Hold on tight girls.

First Ice Cream cone of the summer. Split with mommy of course.
