Summertime

(By JPC)

This weekend we enjoyed a few of summer's greatest offerings. Sunny weather, a BBQ with friends, swimming, sunflowers, and lots and lots of watermelon!

Ellie and Mommy taking a dip in the pool to cool off on a 95 degree day!


"Are you going to the BBQ? OK, I'll see you there!"



Ellie's ready for the sun in Mommy's sunglasses



At the BBQ, Ellie had her first hot dog and proceeded to eat 1 1/2! At this point though she's just dipping her finger into the ketchup and eating that :-)



Enjoying dinner with friends




Playing on the slide after dinner (while the bigger kids played on the slip 'n' slide)





Ellie having her 3rd snack of watermelon for the day and absolutely loving it!





Beautiful sunflowers from the farmers' market



Ahhhhhh, the good life!

Yes, Aunt Barbie, the curls are coming in! I keep hearing from other people though that most kids this age have curls (did Kyleigh??) so we won't know for sure until she's a little older, I guess. It was nice to talk to you yesterday and Ellie was still talking about you this morning!

To answer your question...No Kyleigh did not have any curls at any time! Maybe most kids do...but not her..LOL Her hair came in stick straight...
