Fireworks in the driveway just as the rain was starting to come down.It always takes so long to upload photos to the blog, that by the time they are done, I am too tired to write anything. LOL!
So we have been kind of trying to take the summer easy and not be so rushed. It seems to be working. We still have 2 weeks until we leave for Wisconsin and then Michigan. I know our time there will fly by and then summer will be over. :(
I, personally, have been working the first 8 weeks of summer. It's not been too bad and the kids we have this summer are pretty well behaved. They haven't really gotten too gung ho with the summer theme either, so it's been a nice laid back summer. I think all of us teachers needed that after such a hectic school year.
Addison has moved up from the Toddler program to the Primary program. It is so hard to believe she will be 3.5 years old on Sunday.Wasn't she just a baby? She has also gotten incredibly tall!!! We measured her about a month ago and her legs, from top of her hip to top of her ankle, was 18 inches, and her torso with her head, was 20 inches. So she is almost half LEGS!!!!
Tonight we were checking out bikes for her and the one that fit her perfectly is a 16 inch wheel!!! John says she can be a super model or a WNBA star. :)
XP has been attending a summer day camp at a local church. It has been an incredible blessing for us. They don't charge a lot for the week and are taking full advantage of local places. Every Tuesday they go to the free movies and Wednesdays and Thursdays are field trips that never cost more than $10 total. This is his last week and then he will spend next week at our church's VBS. One week he spent the evening at a church camp that was truly incredible! There were 950 kids participating in events ranging from sports to scrapbooking, drama, dance, and woodworking. XP chose baseball, which is great because it gave him a chance to see if he enjoys the sport. HE LOVED IT!!! So, now we may be playing baseball!! :)
Our church, this summer, is hosting an SCSC'r, Summer Christian Service Core. His name is Jonathan. We have had the opportunity of hosting him a few times. He is a lot of fun and we look forward to taking him to a few fun places around Atlanta.
