Summer~ The First Half

True Colors~

Summer is half over.  We are making our way through the summer days, and I do love staying home with the kids, but it is exhausting.  I have finally gotten pictures downloading from the camera and edited.  I love the new camera, but it is so easy to get 1000 pictures with it in no time.  It has definitely added to my need to edit!  Here's a glimpse in our first few weeks of summer!

At the end of May we finished soccer with both kids.  It was Isla's first year, and she did great!  Rowan had a great team, and he showed some miraculous improvement throughout the season!

In June, we also did 2 weeks of swimming lessons with the kids.  They continue to improve in swimming, and I truly believe this is one of the best gifts I can give them!  Rowan is almost what I would call a proficient swimmer.  Isla was a bit manipulative with the cute high school boy and got him to hold her the entire time!  She has some skills, though, but she has a ways to go~  They had fun too!
