We're home...safe and sound

We arrived home on Friday at 1 AM. We didn't get on the road until 8:45 Thursday night because when Will and I went to pick up the van we found out that our technician had the keys in his pocket. Guess where he was? At home. Ugg. That was a 75 minute delay.

Anyway, we are so grateful to Grancy and Big Daddy for putting up with us for 8 straight days. We had a great time using their neighborhood pool (almost every day) and it's quite nice for the girls to get to know their grandparents. That was, by far, my favorite part and the fancy apricots. yum (look for a blog post about our trip soon)

So now that we're home our crazy summer schedule begins. Last night in the kickball playoffs we won so now we have to play the finals on July 10th. We have a bbq tonight.

On Tuesday Sophia begins her summer dance class at the gym. She's really looking forward to taking another dance class with Haley. It also happens to coincide with a class that I take so I'm thrilled. Sophia also starts swimming class on July 6th. She's doing a week of vacation bible school and she's also doing princess camp again. She's a lucky girl.

Lilly is going to vacation bible school too, but she'll be in the nursery with her church friends. She's also going to have private swimming lessons. Her coach will probably be Will. (smile) She got really comfortable in the pool while we were at Grancy's house. Now we need to get her to blow bubbles. If this strategy doesn't seem to work then I will sign her up for lessons at the rec center.

Will and I have packed weekends too. I mentioned the bbq tonight and we have another one next weekend. The following weekend we have the kickball finals and Sophia has a birthday party. The weekend following we are planning to get together with Will's business partners in Northern VA. The last weekend in July is when my brother and his girlfriend are planning to come down for a visit. The first weekend in August is Claire's baby shower in Northern VA. The second weekend (August 7th) is our 6th anniversary. On August 21st we have a wedding in New York, but I'm not certain we'll be able to go. It's going to be a great summer.
