Welcoming summer.....




This time of year when June is looming around the corner, it is the time for all the "endings" of the school year and all the beginnings of summer. For us, we had a great Memorial Day weekend where we opened the pool at the beach house....While it was too chilly for a real swim (the kids went in)... it was a peek of the upcoming summer and it is always a great feeling!

Our June calendar has events written on every day- end of year plays and concerts, dance recitals, graduation parties, girl scout events....and hopefully the installation of our new kitchen! Di had a bridging ceremony in brownies to turn into a girl scout...after three years in brownies (Ist through 3rd) they become girl scouts. It brought back vivid memories of my own ceremony and I got all choked up...it was really special to me.....Di also has three routines for her dance recital; Jazz/Hip Hop, Tap, and Ballet... she is a great little dancer and her solos also bring tears to my eyes...add to that Gi's speaking part in the first grade dinosaur play, and you have a proud, weeping Mommy....

So we will tie up the year in a flurry of activities and gladly welcome the relaxation that summer brings!!!!!!
