I love summer!  I could do without the 100+ temps we are having right now, but I do love warm weather.  You wouldn't know it by how white I am!  Anyway, here is a picture of my girlie girl daughter in playing in the sand at the lake.  I guess the sand bothered her by sticking to her hands and feet.  She didn't like it at all.  So, she propped her little feet up on her bucket, cause she still wanted to play in the sand and fill that bucket up with her shovel. We met the Reaves who were camping, and Eston was busy swimming with Hunter and Morgan.  He took swimming lessons for two week this month.  It really made a difference.  I am very proud of how far he has come.  Last weekend we were swimming at a pool and he was jumping off the diving board and swimming all around.

We have Silver Dollar City season passes this year.  It is a lot of fun.  I forget to take pictures while we are there.  Here is one of Anna and her cousin Elle playing in the water spouts.

This one is actually a different trip with the Masottos.  Here are Angela and Eston. 

And finally Travis had someone to ride the big roller coasters with him.  Here are Angela and Travis braving Wildfire.  Eston rode Thunderation with me.  That's about as big as I want to get. Mr. Frank, Ms. Lilly, Diana, and the Reaves family went with us. We had a great time. 

Anna loves her milk!  She wanted the cartons to sit right next to her in the cart.  And when we left the case, she said, "Bye bye milk." 

She is wanting to be so independent. She says (wait, she exclaims), "My help!"  That means step away and let me do it.  She will even point her finger at me and say "no, mama, no" sometimes if I try to get near her or help her with the task at hand. 

Little People Attack!!!

Anna loves to get into a cabinet in the kitchen where I keep canned goods.  She pulls them all out, makes towers, and rearranges them quite often.  The door behind her is to the laundry area.  The other day she had opened the door and stacked all the cans on the window sill and was quite proud of herself. 

 Here are some pictures from Easter.  Here we are dying eggs.

 Anna getting tired and pushing the egg aside.  She's quite fiesty.  She's got a little attitude. 

 Here's my soccer team from this spring.  I coached Eston's team again this season.  I managed to somewhat control these little boys!  We had some tears, mind you!  They did great!

 Bath time!
