Catch-Up Post - Summer

I guess it takes an old friend in New York to IM and ask why haven't you blogged in 5 months and what is going on with your family in order for me to get myself into the mindset of blogging. It's been so long since the last post that I just need to do a catch-up so I don't feel so bad. I basically missed the whole summer and pretty much most of the fall. Yikes!

So hang on folks! This will be a bumpy ride!

Lauryn finished Kindergarten and had an end-of-the-year BBQ at the park by our house. That's the one really nice thing about your neighborhood school....it's just so darn close!

Lauryn didn't get to rest for long. The very next Monday, she started going to Daycamp at our church. John got a little nostalgic thinking about when he directed Daycamp many, many, many moons ago. We enjoyed the USS Hornet Aircraft carrier field trip. Besides arts and crafts, and 1 day of woodworking, Lauryn also took the hair-styling workshop and came home one day with this:
Our Fourth of July BBQ was a lot of fun b/c John got a Wii. Lauryn got really good at the boxing game. Her little arms just go, go, go! Here's Auntie Jen bowling. It's always a crowd pleaser. And weird thing was that John didn't even have to wait in line or go really early. He just walked into Toys 'R Us one day and they had it!

Here are the girls enjoying the swing (one pushing, one riding) at our annual church picnic.

We had our TLC Charities garage sale in August. It's a non-profit my auntie Rose started to help underprivileged kids and single moms. So thanks to everyone who donated items for the sale! We had a GREAT turnout. People came non-stop all day long! Lauryn had a lemonade stand. (The lemonade wasn't very appealing at 9AM, so we got her some bagels to give away as a "bonus" and then sales soared!)We went to the County Fair this year and saw Hi-5 live! That was a blast! Even for most of the adults! They had 2 new people we didn't know, but the songs were the same.On hot days during the summer, the girls really enjoyed this little hopscotch sprayer.
