Sienna spends a lot of her free time during summer break writing stories.  She also loves playing games, reading, and going swimming.  She finished soccer and dance and is taking swim lessons.

Colby loves playing basketball, or any sport for that matter.  He finished a strong season of soccer and is also taking swim lessons.  He loves playing computer games, watching movies, and having playdates.  He is becoming a good reader.
This was Colby counting today: "Infinity and ninety-niiiiiiine...... infinity and beyond.... infinity and beyond-one....infinity and beyond-two.....infinity and beyond-three...."

Ashley loves playing with her baby dolls, listening to stories, playing with Dallin, and trying to keep up with the big kids.  She knows her letters and almost knows all her sounds.  Bryan asked her today if she had any more bloody noses (she's been waking up with them at night).  She replied, "No, only a yellow one."

Dallin has an adorable 4-teeth grin.  He loves being outside, playing in the water, and any kind of possible mischief.  He started walking full time this month.

Bryan enjoyed a 4 day bike trip with the Young Men from church.  They rode along the Natchez Trace (a National Park Scenic Highway).  The highs were in the mid to high 90s every day.

I'm trying to be creative with finding entertainment for the summer.  But mostly it involves going swimming somewhere.  One of the highlights for me was going to see Les Miserables with Bryan.  It was fantastic.  I also had a great Mother's Day and am a very blessed mom.
