Bad Bloggee

It's been over a week since I've posted. I've just been procrastinating. That's all. There haven't been major outings or events to post about. Here's what our family has been up to...

Josh had his final band concert for this year. I couldn't find my camera anywhere and was running late so no pictures or videos from the concert but this is just after we got home.

Carley had another dance "show". It's the last for the Spring season. Summer sessions aren't long enough to invite the parents to see the final class but there will be more in Fall. She's in Level III now and doesn't find the steps as easy to grasp. It's a challenge for her.

The weather has warmed up considerably so I've taken the kids swimming a few times over at my friends', Wendy and Chris, pool. This weekend has a mid-80s forcast and I'm looking forward to a little relief from the heat.

Our container garden seems to be healthy and happy. We have about one strawberry a day now. It's not much but it makes the kids very happy to pick and eat something we grew together. I can't wait until the tomatoes are ripe.

Carley has been on her dad about building a bird house together. I have no idea where she came up with the idea but after a month of begging they finally built it. Granted it was mostly Walt but Carley was so excited when it was done. She was dying to paint it. I'm not sure if she'll get around to it.

My friend, Amber, who moved away to North Carolina a few years ago was out for a visit over Memorial Weekend without her kids. I spent most of my time hanging out with Wendy, Amber, and Amber's sister, Cai. Occasionally we had the kids around like here at their school playground.

While in the mountains with girlfriends, I got to play around with a slow shutter speed on the river. I didn't have my tripod or remote but I made do without them. I'm hoping I'll get back up there before the river is too low. So pretty.

... and there you go.
