Summer Fun... well, mostly fun

We are off to a great start with our Summer 2013! We have several fun things planned. We started off the summer with a weekend at the lake. We had lots of fun, but some plumbing issues at the lake house sent us back home sooner than we planned. It wasn't before a beautiful sunset boat ride and a fun day of playing in the water. We also got to spend time with our sweet Kate. They are all at a fun age to play together really well. It is hard to notice the 18 month age difference at this point. They love being together!


Frannie packed her own things for the trip to the lake. This was the day before we left. Think she was looking forward to it?





Frannie participated in the cheer camp that is hosted by our local high school. She really enjoyed it! My favorite thing she learned at camp? A cheer that says, "... and we can beat those turkeys any 'ol time." Except she says, "... and we can eat those turkeys any 'ol time." When I told her it was probably beat rather than eat, she was quite adamant that she was correct. I guess cheerleaders really like to eat turkey. ;-)


We also went a reception for some sweet friends that got married last weekend.

Rush also tried soccer camp this summer. It didn't go well. There were tears and some sobbing. To make a long story short, it was pretty much a disaster, but he looked really cute in his gear, didn't he? He said he might try it again when he is five. Stay tuned...


Even though soccer camp didn't go as planned, we did get to hang out with my best friend, Michelle. She comes into town each summer and stays with us for a couple of days while her boys are participating in the university's football camp. We even got to enjoy lunch with Zack and Carter before they left to go back home. The kids were completely SPOILED the whole time she was here.




We've also been to the new Dunkin' Donuts.. twice. And that just kind of makes everything better.



And yes, Frannie definitely got a new short hairstyle! We all LOVE it!! I think it looks so cute on her! We may keep it that way for a while. :-)
