In the last three weeks:
-We have almost finished up our front patio project and I must say it looks pretty nice. All that is left is to buy some patio furniture, so I am ever on the look-out for a good, CHEAP bargain. I will be so excited when it is all done and I can sit out there and enjoy it. I will post before and after pics when it is totally finished. The motivation for starting in the backyard has dwindled with the 90 degree heat. Maybe this fall...
-Austin finished up soccer. He had a blast and improved so much over the short 8 weeks. AND, his team finished first in the division. Go Sharks!
-Austin completed the 2nd grade with flying colors, and is looking forward to 2+ months off of fun and relaxation. And baseball. He did really well in school this year, as expected, and I have already found out who his 3rd grade teacher is and have heard nothing but wonderful things about her. So we are looking forward to another good school year. Just not quite yet, I am going to try and savor this summer!
-Aunt Diane came for a visit! It had been a year since we had seen her, and the kids were so excited. Especially Austin who has always had a soft spot for his Aunt Diane. We took her to the Science Museum, the Zoo, and swimming with our friends. The kids loved her being here and were sad to see her go. Especially Aubrey, who was completely out of it when she left sobbing "I want her! Is she going to come back on Friday or Saturday or Monday?" (which seem to be the days she likes the most as she asks if everything is going to happen on those days). Anyway, they bonded. And we are looking forward to the next time.
