Sunsets

We have had some AMAZING sunsets lately and Robert and I have been playing around with the camera to figure out the best settings to use.  Below are just a couple of the tons of photos we took one night!

 Our pool right now - they say it will be done on Thursday???

 My sister is getting married this July, here is a photo of the girls that were there on Sunday for her bridal shower.

I have more videos to upload but can only do a few a week with vimeo's free service :)

Videos

I'm attempting to download videos from the fair on Wednesday.  There should be a dance with both Logan and Annabelle and then one dance for each of them seperate.  Hopefully it works :)

Father's Day and Swimming

We had a pretty peaceful Father's Day.  We went to breakfast with my mom and dad, hung out at the house and then had dinner at my parents house.  Logan has decided that he can swim again and is getting braver everytime.  He is jumping off the edge of the pool and swimming all the way across the pool.  Annie finally took off her floaties and swam in the jacuzzi.  She can totally swim underwater but has lost ALL coinfidence in her abilities.  We have tried to get her to go in the big pool and swim and she insists that she can't swim.  

A few more photos

I'm a little annoyed because I wrote a whole post yesterday and for some reason it didn't publish or save it!!  So, I'll do my best to remember the important parts :)

The happenings

Pool:  We are in the process of resurfacing our pool and with that came new tile and rock and who knows what else by the time Robert is done with it.  It is looking good, but it is a slow process.  I'm hoping that it will be done by July so we can enjoy it!

Water:  Boy, oh boy - if we knew we would be having this many issues with the water we would not have bought Burma.  I was optomistic, Robert was more realistic but we went for it - hopefully it won't be a major fail on our part.  Our water truck is on the fritz so Robert has put together a smaller water tank that he can put in his truck and fill up with we need it.  Logan has become Robert's right hand man turning the water on and off.  It is nice because it lets Annie and I clean some of the house without so much fighting!

Johnathan - is getting huge!  He is in size 24mon/2T.  He still isn't talking too much but has such random words.  He started preschool last week and is liking it.  He enjoys being with the other kids and playing.  He comes home exhausted because he is such a busy boy. Hoping that he picks up some social skills - he won't be the littlest there and no one wants to share with him and vice versa.  We started to talk about the potty here at home and I know they make him sit on the potty at school.  I can't wait to be done with diapers!!  We go in August for more allergy testing, I am hoping for positive results.

Logan - is such a funny little guy and watching him and Johnny is just a crack up.  He plays pretty good with him, but still is that great big brother that messes with him.  Right now, he is super into sports and wants to play everything.  He keeps asking me when he is going to play this or that.  We are thinking him and Annie will play outdoor soccer with some friends this fall.  

Annabelle - is her usual bossy self.  She enjoys being my lil helper and has actually started to help me in the kitchen more.  She is interested in cooking and wants to do everything.  She is also great at helping clean up.  She really likes learning right now and will play games on the ipad, file folers games I had from when I taught Kinder, and she loves to "read" books.  She wants to learn how to read and so I guess that is my big job this summer.  It is pretty cool to see both Logan and her telling me about letters and sounds.  We play sound games on the way home from preschool.
