Ahhh...summer at last!

We've been so busy during the month of June that it feels like we haven't been able to enjoy the summer. But that all changed this week. We finally had a week with nothing at all to do! And other than a trip to the doctor to get antibiotics for Alli and Carrie (ear infections) we have been able to enjoy a relaxing week. We have mostly played outside and found lots of little creatures. Alli found a little toad in the grass. We looked him over and admired him, then put him in the garden. We caught a grayish brown grasshopper, put him in a little cup then watched him jump out. As we were riding the golf cart, we saw a black snake about 4 feet long! We watched him curl up to look at us, then slither off the road. A tea party in the sunflower house, splashing in puddles and walking in rain, library story time, painting fingernails, and play doh. Sounds a little idealistic, but it really was a great week! Funny thing, though...I don't have a single picture! :)
