Wrapping up Summer

Summer is quickly coming to end.  It technically has wrapped up for the girls.  They have been back at school since Feb.4.  Graham will start back on Feb 25.  One of the disadvantages of going to different schools is different calendars.  Technically this summer break is also only their mid term break in school so I have had to be much more diligent is keeping their minds "academic" so they do not lose ground heading back into 2nd and 4th grade.  I think we did a good job balancing school work and fun.  But I am sure if you ask the kids they would disagree.

Both sets of grandparents came for a visit.  What a blessing to explore Peru with them.  The rest of our summer was hanging with friends, going to the beach, summer camp, the start of horseback riding for the girls and football camp for Graham.
















The girls celebrated Valentine's Day as well as the 100th day of school on Feb. 14!  So of course, Bryce wanted to dress up pink and Layne wanted to go to school as a 100 year old lady.  They compliment each other very well.


We very much enjoyed our relaxing summer, but this momma is ready for some routine and structure in our daily lives.  One week left and then it will be back to business as usual!
