Looking Forward To Summer

There is something about June that just screams SUMMER to me. June 1 didn't disappoint. We spent almost the whole day outside. First a picnic lunch at the park with some great friends. Then we came home and got Lucas down for a nap. Our friends joined us in the afternoon for some more outside time. 

The kids rode bikes and ran through the sprinkler while we sipped our iced tea and soaked up the sun. Then we ordered pizza and ate out on the deck. FUN! FUN! FUN!

Alyssa asked me today, "Was today the first day of summer? Cause it sure felt like summer." 

"Yes, my dear, in my mind today was the first day of summer."

Kids running around with hats on, the smell of sunscreen in the air, dirty hands and sweaty hair.....definately feels like summer to me.

Have I mentioned lately that my sister and her family will be here in a week????  I am beyond excited. I can't wait. I think this is the longest we have been apart and I so can't wait to see her.

Matt was at a work golf tournament today. He just called and is having a great time. I'm sure it will be a late night tonight for him but, I am so glad he is having fun. He has been working so much latelythat he deserves to be able to relax and let loose a little.
