Hello Friends!
For our family, the Summer usually begins with the big girls's birthdays. Aaliyah's birthday is June 18th and Cassidy's birthday is June 17th. We always aim to take a long break (3 or 4 weeks) from school and just focus on the family having a great time, beginning on the 17th. This year, Summer sort of began on a down not for us, in that we took the cousins back to Oklahoma on the 10th of June.
We only were able to stay for a few hours and spend time with them at their home before we had to head back. We were able to see a little bit of my family before we had to head back.

Berry picking fun! |
Once we landed back home, we rested for a couple of days and enjoyed the peace and quiet; then the festivities began! Family only birthday parties, cooking classes, a district 4-H competition, Swimming and cookouts with friends, berry picking, etc.

One thing I am especially proud to share is that the girls are beginning formal music lessons!!! I teach them piano because I have been playing for years; but I do not have a music degree; nor do I know how to play ukelele or clarinet. I am excited about watching the girls's musical skills improve.
