For a good part of the last six months I've seriously contemplated "finishing" the blog. But then I went back and looked at all of the years that are documented here on this page. We've come a long way since we were the Virginia Winegars! And so I'm back. Here's a summer recap:
 |
| Spent a lot of time on the boat this summer. Virginia likes to drive. She's pulling Savannah. That Uncle Derek is such a softie. He'll go for just about anything. |
 |
| I had a birthday, and baked myself some delicious Texas Sheetcake Cupcakes. They were just as good as I had hoped. Happy birthday to me. |
 |
| We hung with the Willards a lot. Clara and Charlotte are shaping up to be great buddies. Just another year or so and they'll be just as thick as the older ones. On a side note: Charlotte has only worn shoes twice in all her life. As a result, she doesn't care much for them. Hoping the cooler weather will help her to see the utility in them. |
 |
| Charlotte had a birthday. She's one. Wowza, the time flies! Still not walking at 14 months. |
 |
| The big girls FINALLY talked me into a lemonade stand. It was at least 100 degrees that day. Savannah had to wear her pioneer bonnet that we got in SLC this summer. Pretty sure that at least 50% of the straws made it into Virginia's mouth at some point before the sale was over. |
 |
| We went on a date for my birthday. It was so fun. |
 |
| Savannah started first grade. She hated it at first. She wanted to go back to Kindergarten where they play and sing and have rest-time. First grade was just to hard, she said. It's all work. Math, math, math! As an act of desperation, we had an after-school party to celebrate the end of being sad about going to school. The party even included gifts and cupcakes. Worked like a charm. Now when she starts to complain I just say,"Oh wait! Remember the party?!" |
