Lots going on!

We've had quite a lot going on since my last post. I'll recap here.

One afternoon, instead of hitting the pool, we pulled out the sprinkler. The girls had fun running through the cold water!

We spent Father's Day at the pool. We all had a great time hanging out and playing. Ainsley is becoming quite the little swimmer these days. If you notice in the pictures, they are in the deep end (5ft)! Cadence does well with a noodle or floatie. She's not quite ready to jump in without some help yet.

While Matt and his dad took a trip to Atlanta (again!), the girls and I headed up to Greensboro to hang out with the rest of the family. We had a great time and managed to spend time with everyone. Thursday, we had lunch with my grandmother and mom. The girls got to play and water the plants and my grandmother's house. They thought that was so much fun! Then we headed off to my dad's house. We picked lots of raspberries before going out to dinner. Thursday night, we spent at the Alberty's house. Friday I took the girls to the Science Center. It was pretty hot out so we didn't spend a lot of time in the zoo this trip. I did get this great picture though!

Friday afternoon, since it was so hot, I took the girls back to play with Nana and Sara while I went back to my dad's to pick more berries. Ainsley and Cadence loved the play time! Dad and I put a small dent in the berries, but there were loads more when I left. We had dinner with Nana and Sara before we headed back home to Charlotte.

I guess that brings us to July now. We spent the 4th doing the usual around here--hanging out at the pool. (Well, not me. I was bitten by a spider before we went to G'boro and the antibiotics didn't mix well with the sun so I stayed in the A/C and had a bit of retail therapy thanks to Nana! I won't even mention the fact that a little seed tick found it's way to my leg while I was picking berries with my dad. Yep, it bit me too!) Sara and Nana spent the day with us. Cadence hadn't napped that day, so she and Matt stayed at home while Nana, Sara, Ainsley and myself went to watch the fireworks. It was Ainsley's first "outing" to see fireworks and she definitely enjoyed every minute of it!

This week, Ainsley is in Dance Camp and I'm busy getting ready for their combined birthday party on Saturday. I'll be sure to post pics from that!
