What we've been up to...

Well, that last entry was at the top far longer than I planned, and it got me a lot of sympathy... thanks, everybody! Brian's deal has slowed down A LOT this week, so we're seeing each other on a more normal schedule, which has been nice. I've been lazy at blogging this week, but I've kept the camera handy. So, here are some more fun pictures to post, just from things we've been doing around the house...

Swimming party in the living room!
Last Friday Sam found her swimming suit in her drawer and brought it to me, exclaiming "suit! suit!" She really wanted to put it on, even though it's only in the 50s here. I gave in and said she could wear it for awhile as long as she put a sweater on over it. Before long, we brought in her little pool and slide -- sans water -- so she could have the full effect of swimming. I drew the line when she tried to drag the garden hose in to put some "wah wah" in the pool!
Last Saturday, we had a really fun primary party at our house. We made homemade pizza, played some games, and had ice cream cones. The reason for the party is that our primary children have been learning the Articles of Faith for our church. For each one they memorized, they got a scoop of ice cream. (I confess, we were pretty lenient when it came to doling out the scoops.)
