Oh I almost forgot…

I am excited about other things for this summer that I forgot to mention.

Now that I am done with my child bearing I am taking golf lessons again:0) Every time I have taken lessons we have either moved or gotten pregnant so I am hoping for neither of those. I am also taking tennis lessons starting in August!

The girls are also starting tennis and golf this summer! They start lessons in July (yeah I know it is hot but hey we live in the desert so it’s gonna be hot). Anyway, they are excited and I am excited. If we all play golf and tennis I am hoping it will be our go to family activity and also give the girls something fun they can always do with their dad:)

What a weekend….

We have had one busy weekend filled with LOTS of quality family time. I don’t know how the pieces all came together but it was a great fun family weekend.

We started with the end of school year picnic at Desert Sun. We took Noa (our neighbor) who had a great time playing with Anthony from her class (his brother was in Piper and Lela’s class). The girls had a great time and were seriously pooped when they got home. Piper did not come out of her room once and even slept in the next day.

Saturday started out with bagels and coffee, yum. Then we spent the day playing games like Go Fish and War. The big girls, Noa and I had a crafting bonanza while Landis napped. Then we all played a game together, we made pizzas and had movie night. It was a lot of fun. Jason and I even got in a game of Memoir 44, unfortunately I was the Germans and lost the battle but oh well:)

Sunday I went to book club in the morning and the rest of the fam had breakfast burritos at home. Then we all went out to lunch and to the movies. We came home and scrubbed up the girls and started laundry so we can all start the week squeaky clean.

I am so glad that the girls are out of school, no schedule, we don’t have to be anywhere and we can just be together and do what we want. Yipee! Hurray for summer vacation:)
