Our first week of summer

So far summer has been a ball...it is one of my favorite times of the year when the kids get out of school and it feels like you're on vacation even though you're not!

I love that....
1. our schedule is much more flexible
2. we can put the kids to bed whenever we want
3. we can watch late night movies as a family
4. my house actually is cleaner because the boys are willing and helpful
5. Audrey is entertained 24/7 

But the best part of it all is...I love being the BOSS, and what mom says goes! What a good feeling this is and I just need to enjoy it while I can! 

our week went like this...

8:00 - 8:40 swim team
9:00 - 10:30 basketball shooting camp (the boys change in the car from their swimsuits to gym clothes)
1:00 - 4:30 musical theater
6:00 - 7:00 gymnastics

This schedule continues for 2 more weeks...then hopefully BABY will arrive!

In other news... Audrey came down with strep throat...Ellie had it last week so Audrey was bound to get it.  Here's Audrey at the dr's office being sassy with her messy hair.
The boys had their first swim meet this season.  I love this picture of Zach with his eye on the 1st place ribbon.

Zach ended up with 1st, and Dallin with 6th.  It was a great swim meet for both of them.  I was so proud!

Lastly...We went to our stake conference tonight and heard Elder Scott speak.  I got to shake his hand at the end.  It was a pretty incredible experience.

What a fun summer! I am looking forward to the kids starting swim team too this summer...it'll be interresting! I am so jelous you only have a couple of weeks to go. I am hoping keeping the kids busy will help the summer go by quicker! Where are they doing swim team?
