My poor neglected blog

The end of the school year has been non stop craziness. And it's not over yet. Jess has a horse show tomorrow. I'll be driving up to Newark on Saturday. Sunday we're busy all day with Father's Day things. Maybe by Monday I'll have some time to spend here. Until then....

be good!

Good Sunday Morning!

Had a great day yesterday.

Went to a family style birthday party for one of Claire's friends in Rehoboth. The grandparents live on the boardwalk and had the party at their house. We hung out in the yard, complete with moonbounce, snow cone machine and lots of food, then all went to the beach together. It was chilly but the kids all had a blast.

We came home for a while and when Hannah got home from work we headed to the campground at the State Park. The Quinns are down and had a cookout at their site. Being in the campground reminded us how much we love to camp and that we need to set aside some time to get out in our camper. Claire had a blast with the big kids and climbing her tree.

Today looks to be a quieter day. We're going to head out to the grocery store soon. Jonathan has some work to do. I have some scrapping to do. Hannah will come home (hopefully soon) from camping and study for exams. I'm picking up Jess a bit early to take her shopping. She needs clothes desperately. And that's it.

The sun is shining, the house is (fairly) clean. It's a good day.

A Week of June is Gone Already!

How did that happen?

The dance recital went well last weekend. Very well actually. These girls are so fun to watch dance.

Unfortunately, the horse show didn't go as well. Skittles was not behaving and Jess did her best to control him but he tossed her on the cross country course putting her out of the running for a ribbon. She got back on though and finished the course...after he finished his 10 minute bucking bronco show and allowed himself to be caught. Crazy pony! I think it might be time to get her a horse of her own.

She didn't get hurt and still had a blast. And that's all that matters.

Now we're grinding out the last week of school. Then SUMMERTIME! Wheeeee :D

Here are some photos...I still don't know how to arrange them pretty like within the post. I'll put it on my list of things to do.

Have a good one!
