First Week of Summer

 We left Sophie's awards ceremony and headed to Weatherford.  Taylor and I left the kids with Grammy and Bumpaw and spent the night at the Omni Hotel in downtown Fort Worth to celebrate our 12th anniversary.  It was a very relaxing weekend.  We had a fun fondue dinner, slept late, and spent the day shopping for our bedroom redo later in the summer.  After dinner back in Weatherford with the entire family we left the kids there for a few more days and Taylor and I came home.  I spent the days cleaning out, organizing, and getting ready for our garage sale.  
 Some of my new favorite Pinterest ideas - crates with hanging files for each year.  Theoretically, 1 crate should go PreK - 12th grade but since Sophie's is already about half full we may need a few crates per child!

 Another Pinterest idea - kids' art gallery in the hall outside their bedrooms
 Taylor idea - a ballet bar/floor/mirror in Sophie's room
 She loves it!





I met Mom and Dad and picked up the kids Tuesday night.  We have enjoyed our week so much swimming, riding bikes, playing games, and playing at the park.
Today we had our garage sale and Sophie had a lemonade stand.  
John Curtis spent his day in the peach tree.

We did pretty well at the sale and are so glad to have it behind us.  The kids want to spent their lemonade money on frozen yogurt tonight. No argument here!
Next week - ballet class for Sophie and lots of playing and relaxing for all of us!
