A Whole Lot of Summer Fun!

 

 

What a great week we recently spent with our grands.

I just love the summer!

Here are a few highlights of some very special memories.

Grace took swimming lessons at the YMCA by our home.  We went each day and she loved every minute. You can see how tan she is.

 

 

 

On the last day they practiced boat safety.  Here is Grace going off into the pool.  Little did she know they would flip the boat to teach the kids how call out for help and not to panic in a water emergency!

 

We met up with our neighbor and her kids for lunch.  The children had so much fun together.  When we were finished eating we took them all to the library to read.

 

Kayla was reading to Grammy, and she was really doing a very good job!  Of course, when your mom is a teacher it helps a little.

 

Grace was so excited to read to Grammy as well!

 

A visit would not be complete without a shopping trip.  The girls love to take a bunch of dresses into the changing room and then model them for Grammy.

 

Here is Kayla patiently waiting while her sister got her hair cut.

 

 

We had some rainy afternoons, but that didn’t slow the girls down very much.

 

And here is my very own Mary Poppins!

 

 

 

 

My sweet and very patient friend Debra came over and taught me how to use a few new textures.  I decided to try them out on a shot I had recently taken of a teacup and flower .  Thanks Deb for your help!
