Princess & Dragon Ball

sometimes our neighborhood does these fun little things just for kids!!!
this sunday it is all about princesses and dragons so why not get the kids dressed and have them meet a real dragon!
of course anytime Sadie and Si get a chance to dress up they go all out
it was a fun day of dancing and fighting dragons....so now it is time to nap

summer is coming to end only for school to start

it is august now and even though it feels like summer can never ever end - it will, right?
we have gotten the letter telling us Sadie will start school in 2 weeks!!!!
UGH!!!!
so how do we cram in a lot of fun before school starts???
how do we get the last bit out of every day?
go to the beach!!

more summer fun in the sun

everyday we do try to get outside and do something fun
here are just a few pictures of the summer so far
we have been trying to get to Mentor Headlines as much as possible this summer - in the mean time though we have been going to the rec center and Sadie and Si are both doing great learning to swim
Sadie is now comfortable diving into the water and can swim from one end of the pool to the other
Silas is a really strong kicker and with help can go from one end to the other - still working on dunking the head - but every day they both get a bit stronger and a bit more confident!
