One time, a long time ago, I used to blog.....

But then the spring/summer of 2010 happened.
It was a bitch.
That happens in life, and fortunately there were some good/great times thrown in there as well...

Quick skipover/rundown....

May=terrible.
some highlights:

Soph finishes up school!



A special pizza dinner with strawberry Crush, of course...

May = way too many activites to close up a school year.
I don't remember all of that. We had field day. The end.


Swim lessons begin



Shocking news...my zoom no longer works on my camera.
Note to self*please take better care of belongings...


Ahh summer....and just like my childhood swim lessons, it was freezing.

swim baby swim



I was getting a great shot of Sophia's entry into the deep end. A life guard chose that moment to observe the situation a little closer.

Speaking of lifeguards, I got talked to by one this year. To watch my kids. Even though they were five feet away from me and I was waist deep in the kiddie pool.
(sitting, not standing). Um, ok. Kind of funny. I guess I am more grateful for a diligent lifeguard instead of a stoner. (I've seen both types)


June=slightly less terrible than May

Some highlights:

Wisconsin!

Highlights:

Kids love their cousins/ cousin time....swimming, ice cream, grandparents....





When I was a kid we went to Pioneer Village in Lagoon and got Old Timey Photos.
My kids don't, so I made do.


July= Starts off strong, ends terrible....

Highlights

Lyla Rose turns 3

Orange.

Toby's cousins BBQ.

Because this blog is family oriented,

Just know it was fabulous.

Coming home...twice....

So happy to be here. My dog ruled the neighborhood while we were gone, *my neighbor hates my dog. sometimes, not so secretly, I can agree.....but then I feel bad, because she is a sweetie. just a pain in the hiney....

Some other neighbors tried to adopt our cat. Nice try suckas! (we just paid to have her spayed...) or, in a more neighborly way....thank you so much for loving on our kitty....can we have her back, please???

Now, I know that August is full of two moons and everything, which almost guarentees some mischief, but I am telling you all.....It will be better than spring/summer......Or else I am sicking my dog on it.....


Now that we are all caught up.....

The End.
