Master bedroom

Here is our room

We actually have somewhat of a walk in closet...way more than we used to have.

We also have dressers (obviously) but I didn't take a picture of them...oh and we have our own bathroom...well a powder room, but it is nice.

Free swim lessons

Shortly after we moved, we signed Mary up for free swim lessons. They are held at our county wave pool (well we attended the wave pool closest to us)

I tried to zoom in on part of Mary's class. They had a great lifeguard to swimmer ratio and Mary had a blast. Didn't really learn how to swim, but I think she overcame her fear of getting her face wet and of putting her face under water. So that is a start...and did I mention it was FREE!

This pic wasn't taken at the wave pool, but I really wanted to have a "wet" close up of her. :) My cutie patootie!!

All about BEE

My beautiful Bee!!

thinking hard?

She behaved SO well during her sisters swim lessons. This particular day she colored numerous pictures for me.

And did a mighty fine job at it!!

FAMILY

We are a "shady" family

Happy 4th

We spent the 4th of July in Indiana and celebrated with the Urso's on the 5th.
Grandma and Pap hosted a picnic.
Had to take a picture of the "look-a-likes"

And the DELICIOUS apple strudel that Pap made. Well, the apple was delicious, but the peach just melted in my mouth. (thats why I don't have a picture of it) Yum...I'm hungry just looking at this picture.

Mary's favorite was the fruit bowl! She steals all the pineapple and strawberries. (Sarah eat the watermelon)

Such a cutie pie!

Cute Couples

James was a bit frightened by all the noise so Andrew was his buddy for the night.

Sarah and Dominic (her buddy)

And the title of this post is best described by this picture. :)
Mary and Joseph (Daddy already has a down payment for the private all girls island) :)

4th of July

For the 4th of July we traveled back to Indiana. We crashed a picnic at a friends house, visited Grandma and Pappy Bill, went to the funeral home as my great uncle passed away and then watched the fireworks with the Pumfords.

Marianne remembered to bring glow sticks which the kids LOVED!!

Sarah was posing up a storm.

The girls watching the show. We watched from St. Bernards parking lot. It was an enjoyable evening and then we hit the road to make it back home.
