It’s Summer… REVISED

Family July 4, 2010

and we have been busy!  The girls’ team just returned home from nearly two weeks at the beach.  (Daddy came when he could.) We are sun kissed with sand still stuck to our bottoms!  We had a wonderful fourth of July celebration with the Woodhams (my crazy family), went to water parks, amusement parks, ate fudge for breakfast (only once), and are so far off from any sort of normal schedule!  It’s wonderful!  (If Mary Clare didn’t gain wait this month, I give up!)  We even went wedding dress shopping with Kacy and she found the most perfect dress!  McCanless was in awe each and every time Kacy came out of her dressing room with such wonderful “real” princess dresses!  Mary Clare was just as content standing on her own “stage” in front of the wall sized mirrors adoring herself and twirling about.

Today, while Mary Clare and McCanless visited friends, I completed the daunting task of unloading/unpacking/washing/cleaning/restocking the house, etc.  (I have no idea what Mel does when we are away.)  I’ll get around to potsting lots of fun photos soon!  This week we have swimming lessons at the pool and Thursday we are off to the Williams’ Lake House for Mimi’s 60th birthday bash with the Haarlow gang!  Yay, we love summer!

Kacy's Engagement 2

I forgot to mention that my sister, Kacy, is very recently engaged.  (Hence, the aforementioned wedding dress shopping excursion.)  I was lucky enough to be in the know and was able to help out just a bit.  And it all happened in my front yard!  The girls were able to watch William propose!  They were glued to the window!  While I do stick to writing only about the girls’ shenanigans on my blog, I must say it was a family event.   Congratulations, Kacy and soon-to-be brother-in-law, William!

I will warn you, however, when you enter into this family, as Mel will tell you.  You not only marry my sister, Kacy…
