Part 3 of Melena's birthday month


Friday was Melena's 3rd and final part of her birthday. At our house your birthday tends to last nearly the whole month. It is not Melena's fault that her birthday lands at a hard time of the month - June 4th - She was still in school with finals and her dance studio was preparing for their spring recital, she also had young women's that night (June 4th) and they were preparing for girl's camp. We had a small cake on her actual birthday (birthday part 1). Then on sunday after her dance recital, both of her sets of grandparents came over so we had to get another cake (birthday part 2). This friday night was the first free weekend. Melena wanted to have a sleepover with her friends and that brings us to part 3. Which I hope to recover from soon. The girls stay up the entire night. Every time I woke up I heard them talking, and when I say I woke up I mean they and their talking woke me up. Fortunately Melena wasn't grouchy from lack of sleep the next day, so I didn't have to be grouchy.

Hanging out with my homies

Swimming Lessons

Camryn is taking swimming lesson at the Y this summer. Today she got moved up in to the more advanced class because she is doing so well. They got to learn to dive in the 12 feet area. After class she ran up to me and said "Did you see me in the 12 feet? Is'nt that amazing!" To her everything is amazing. I wish that I always saw the world that way.

Wet and Wild at the Shipley's

Today we went over to the Shipley's to pick up
Ethan. Since we were over we happened to have
our swimsuits on just in case they were at the pool. They just happened to be outside swimming. Luckily we came prepared. Here are some pictures from paradise at the Shipley's.



Achievment Day

On Wednesday I got to do an activity with my favorite group of girls, The Achievment Day girls. They came over and decorated journals. All the girls had really creative ideas and had a lot of fun. At the end of the evening they got a beautiful journal and extra crafting supplies to play with at home.
