Summer Sun and Fun!

Today is the first "official" day of Summer!!  Woo-Hoo!  Although, I think Summer unofficially showed up around here a few weeks ago.  As I type, our front porch thermometer says 105.  It is beyond sticky today (ick) as a storm blew through last night.  I am just not one for humid, sticky misery.  I much prefer comfortable and breezy!  We got the pool up and running finally!  We had to order some replacement parts due to a mishap last fall.  When we were taking the pool down, it was drained down to about 6 inches of water left and a storm blew in.  The wind picked up the pool and turned it over, bending some of the frame.  The pool is looking much better this year.  Last year was a learning curve and Big Mac has figured out that our REALLY hard water means the pool requires a little more maintenance a little more often to keep it sparkling clean.  Our water wreaks all kinds of havoc.  I have a hard time keeping the cloth diapers free of mineral buildup from the water.  Very frustrating.  I'm trying to find the best wash routine...lots of trial and error!

The girls came back from Nanny Camp 2011 last Friday & they had a blast.  They're already asking how many days until next year's camp.  I just don't think they grasp the concept of 365ish.  

Princess KA is really starting to get around on her own and into everything!  She has finally started doing a full on hands and knees crawl.  Such a sweet stage!  (Until she pulled the small table that holds a lamp in the living room over and dumped everything on said table in the floor)  I think I am just not supposed to have any lamps in the house that aren't wobbly and sad.  Right now, I'm down to 5 lamps in the entire house that haven't been casualties to some act of fun/war/exploration.  LOL!

P.S. - The front porch thermometer now says 106...yikes!!  Poor Big Mac is out cutting grass. :(

Have a Sunshine-y Summer!
