1st Day of Summer

Although I had to work on Friday and Saturday, S. and the girls celebrated with new rollerblades and an afternoon at the skate park.  This is one family READY for summer!

Mia's Birthday Celebration at School!

Mimi reading the class birthday book to daddy!

Mia with Bailey the Birthday Bear.  

When Mia was born in July almost 6 years ago I remember thinking how she would never get to have her birthday at school.  I am so thankful that she was able to have a special day before the end of the year to share treats and all the fun!  She was so proud and LOVED being the birthday girl!

I LOVE these kids!

This just makes me laugh!   John the muscle man!

So Rita, JT, Lily and John were in town for a concert.  We met them for lunch and a fun afternoon at the pool.   The kids had so much fun playing together.   I am so glad we are close enough to see each other more often.   You can imagine the planning and coordination the kids  orchestrated  in the above pictures.    What a great Mother's Day!
