Summer...

I can't believe I'm writing this on Ava's last official day of summer.  BOOOOO to the schools that think it's okay to go back so early!  Even though she goes to a private school, they've decided to follow the local counties school schedule.  I am so sad that are fun busy summer together is over, but Ava on the other hand LOVES school and cannot wait to go back.

We've had a great very busy summer.  Ava went to two art camps and both her and Bennett had two weeks of swim lessons.  We had fun playing with friends and just doing nothing important.

We went to the lake...can you tell Bennett hates the life jacket.

 Ava loves to drive the boat with daddy.

 catching fish off the dock....

 swimmming with daddy...

 And BB's favorite eating juicy watermelon.

It has been so hot outside, the only way we can enjoy it is when water is involved.  Slip-n-sliding is one of our favorites.

 Especially with great friends!

 We celebrated daddy on Father's Day!

 BB enjoyed every minute of swim lessons and definitely has no fear of water.

They even taught Ava how to dive.  She was so brave and actually enjoyed it.

 More time outside, running aroud in our bathing suits.  Love my crazy boy!

 We spent the 4th of July at the lake with Uncle Chris and Aunt Julie.  Can you tell how much Ava loves Julie?

 He likes his puddle jumper vest better...but still is not in love with the idea.

 We also enjoyed a fun day with Mimi, Papa Guy, Gigi and G-Paw at the Aquarium!

Sad to see this fun summer come to an end, but are excited about all the fun things we have to look forward to in the next couple months. So on Monday, it's back to school for Ava :(  I don't know who will be more sad...me or BB!
