I just wanted to give a shout out to Susan and all the others who have continually checked in on us these last couple of months. No, we did not drop off planet Earth. Yes, we are alive! Yes, we are well!
We have just been soaking up "together-time" this summer. We've enjoyed playing, playing, and playing (while throwing in work here and there along the way)!
Here has been our summer so far:
1. Teaching and playing board games and card games
2. Having pillow fights
3. Putting on "fashion shows"
4. Making balloon animals
5. Making balloon swords and having sword fights
6. Playing at the park
7. Swimming
8. Organizing closets
9. Reading books--(Hope and Andrew won the contest for the "Most Books Read" in the preschool division!)
10. Attending a baseball game
11. Skyping with family and friends
12. Looking at picture albums and remembering when....
13. Baking
14. Attending VBS
15. Painting
16. Hosting a Chinese foreign exchange student
17. Attending a Christmas party with our exchange student
18. Attending birthday parties
19. Making Lego creations
20. Going on vacation
21. Hosting a Power Up Club for a week at our house
22. Having friends over to play and visit
23. Putting puzzles together
24. Jumping on the trampoline with friends
25. Playing Chinese Jump Rope
etc.
And this weekend, we have graduation (for our foreign exchange student), a memorial service for a beloved friend, a mother-daughter sleep-over birthday party, and the children will learn to skate at a rollerskating rink....
It's been a whirlwind summer, but school begins Monday. So, we are making the most of our time together.
I have pictures, but that may be overkill ;). Thanks for reading (and caring about us)!
