Sweet Summer Days


Monday marked the first real day of summer. Bike ride in the morning, pool in the afternoon, and Chip's basketball game at night. A good first-of-the-summer day. Tuesday, Matt E came over to play with Mickey. They spent at least five hours in the pool, playing with a small rubber basketball and the pool-hoop (thanks Maw-maw and Pappy! :)) Mickey got enough sun for the whole family. That night, the whole E family and Mr. Mac popped over for dinner and sundaes.  And Wednesday, the used-to-be hump day of the school week, was filled with volunteering for Twinkle, basketball for Chip, and reading and playing with friends for Minnie and Mickey.

And now it is Thursday. Smoothies, chubby Little Miss Kate, wet One Cent, golf, walk, run, pool, sunshine...

Ah, sweet summer days. 

Lemonade coming right up!

...and this basketball game has just turned into a wrestling match!

One Cent loves the pool (and her orange torpedo).

Pink cheeks!
