First week of Summer?!?!

Well, technically not really until mid-June, but its felt like it to us! The Spring semester at USU is over (graduation was last weekend). Madilynn's school is over for spring also and they started the summer session this week. So now she is going to preschool Tuesday/Thursday mornings.

So, Monday morning after running some errands I gave Madilynn a little surprise, something she'd been wanting...

a birdhouse

to paint!
She did a great job painting. She's so serious when she's painting, AND this is the stillest she gets while awake I think! Now she wants Daddy to hang it outside.

It's been warm and sunny this week too, so we've enjoyed lots of playtime outside and the girls have loved it! They've rode bikes, cars, played in rocks, t-ball and play on the swingset.

Elizabeth can even hit the ball off the tee with the bat!

Elizabeth really loves balls right now! She's sure to point them out to me everytime we're in Wal-Mart!

awww...she's wearing her new Razorback shirt too!

showing me a flower she found

now you can see the shirt - Thank you Granny & Pepaw for the new AR shirts, they are so cute!

Instead of playing ball, Madilynn would rather lay in the grass and pick flowers...

It's a beautiful day again today! We just enjoyed a picnic lunch in the backyard today after church. (For the first time in our new house) The girls loved it! We'll have to have picnic lunches more often! Can't wait for our visitors to get here! Ashlee is coming tomorrow and Nana & Papa will be here next week - we are sooo excited!!
