Back from my hiatus

Yay!  We have more storage for pictures again!  Sorry for the long break- I ran out of picture storage and couldn't decide if I wanted to pay the $2 a month to have more.  =)  Yep, I'm cheap.  Anyway, here are a few things we've done this summer, minus our visit from Randy's mom.  I think that deserves it's own post.  
Our morning ritual.  Randy rides his bike to school every day and the girls like to go outside with him and ride the bike to the driveway.  THey love their daddy.

Mya learned to swim.  Well, with the help of water wings.  She wont let me hold her in the water very often now.  Anyway, she is really good.  She can go all over the pool, not just stay in one spot.  And she can go on her stomach and back.  It's been fun to watch her.


Emma's not petrified of water anymore, and that's so nice.  She'll go in by herself with some sort of flotation device.  She used to hold onto me and cry the whole time.

And she has her own style.  Definitely.

Kenadi started public school again.  First grade!  I do want to homeschool her again, but this was right for her at this time.  She loves it and has a great teacher.

I finished a couple of projects.  The couches have needed recovered for a while, and I did this and the pillows.  Now to just finish the love seat....

I just love this high-chair.  It was one I found at a garage sale for $3 and it reminded me of one my parents had for me when I was a baby and my grandparents have one like this.  Well, it was very outdated, so I chose this fabric, laminated it, and recovered it.  Oh, and sanded the tray and repainted it white.  I love it's modern reference to the 70's.
