June 2017

June has been packed full of summer fun.

After a long weekend at the Lake for Memorial Day, we came home to prepare for Sullivan's FIFTH birthday!  I can't believe she is FIVE already!  

We celebrated with a Moana Pool Party at the neighborhood pool with all of Sully's buddies from the neighborhood and soccer team!  It was so much fun.  They swam hard, had pizza and cake and then swam some more.  We shut down the pool with a handful of them swimming until dark!




The girls have enjoyed a few VBS' during June which is always fun.  Thomas has had to stay home with his new most favorite person, Anne Marie, or as he calls her "AnMe" because he is not old enough for VBS just yet.  They have a big time during the day playing and swimming and of course napping!  He loves a nap when the house is empty!

We have had a few family adventures as well.  We celebrated Father's Day with a long walk to the Ag Center for a little creek adventure!  The kids loved it but I think the dogs loved it even more, especially Maysie!


We also went to check out the Chinese Light Festival that made a stop in Nashville.  It was very cool to see all of the lanterns and the performances they put on.  We also stayed just long enough to see the lights shine when the sun went down!




To wrap up the month, the girls enjoyed their first experience with REAL summer camp.  They did a week at Camp Widjiwagan, the YMCA camp just outside of Nashville.  They went to day camp on Monday and Tuesday and when I dropped them off on Wednesday, they SPENT the next two nights at sleep away camp!  I picked them up on Friday and they LOVED it.  They have already asked to go back next year for a whole week of spending the night!!  After spending 10 years of my life at the same overnight summer camp, I am so happy they loved it as much as I did!


All of the kids are doing great and seem to be growing like weeds.

Hudson lost her second tooth and is just all legs these days.


Sullivan is also growing like a weed and sometimes I forget that she JUST turned five.  She is so excited about Kindergarten and it is hard to believe it will be here in just over a month.  At her five year old check-up, she was 46.5 inches tall (97%) and 54 lbs (96%).


Thomas is also getting so big.  He talks ALL the time now and is obsessed with trucks and balls.  He also just started liking Mickey Mouse on TV and any show with dogs!  He loves to swim and work in the yard with Tom.  At his 2 year check-up, he was 35.5 inches tall (80%) and 30 lbs (85%).


That is about all for now.  The girls are going to VBS at our church this week and then it's off to the Lake for a week to celebrate July 4th.  Everyone is so excited for some lake time with the cousins!

Here are the rest of the pictures from our fun month of June:
