Summer comes to a close

Next week marks our last week of summer before the school schedule begins again. What a relaxing, joyful summer we've had. We've spent our last days of summer with some good old fashioned fun...

Caleb loved playing in the laundry basket:


He also tried his hand at the piano:


Brendan enjoyed many weeks of good reading. Here are his favorites from the summer:


While sorting through some of our stuffed toys we discovered Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy. We read the accompanying stories and reminisced about my days as a little girl playing with these dolls. I am surprised and delighted to find that my children enjoy playing with them as much as I did.

Where did Brendan's tooth go? Just kidding, the kids look like they are having a blast! Excited for a new nephew, no doubt.
