These Are The Days!

What a fun summer we are having with all the kids at home!
They are getting up early, playing tennis, reading scriptures, working hard, 
playing hard, reading, developing talents, 
going to bed early, and waking up and doing it all again.
The other day when I went to bed 
I thought of the words to a song: 
"These are the days... to remember!"
Here's some fun things to remember so far in June:
This is Donny and I in the finals for the Millville Tennis Tournament.
(We were the organizers of the tournament)
We've been practicing at 5:30am all summer and took 2nd place!
(Even with Mollie's injured back and sprained ankle)
Sadie was in a neighborhood acting camp.
She did a great job and was so blessed to be taught by 
great neighborhood women who shared their talents.
To see it on youtube here is the link:
Myriam is taking off with Gymnastics and Piano.
She has a list of things to pass off and she pushes herself.
 Holland Lives In Her Swimming Suit.
She loves the water and she is one tan girl already!
She is also successfully potty trained!!!
Packer is our builder.  
He loves studying how things work and experimenting.
Here's a marble set he created this afternoon 
while everyone else was reading or napping.
Hunter is our water boy.
He has been begging to put up the pool  in the backyard
and we finally did it this week.
He loves controlling the hose!
Benson is sitting and rolling and eating a ton!
He has the best smiles- his eyes are so bright.
