Summer

Since I have so many pictures of our Summer, I've decided to put them all in one post. So first we start with John Coleman's birthday dinner, which he had at Macaroni Grill this year. The rest of them are of him opening his presents at our grandparents house.

Quinn visited my ballet class one day and joined me in stretching before my ballet class began

Quinn also discovered a ninja turtle and pirate costume. She insists that she wears them at the same time.

We took Quinn to the beach again and she was not afraid of the sand or water this time!

These are the little ballerinas from Mama's ballet camp last week.

We had a dress-up tea party on Wednesday. They had so much fun!

Here are two videos from this week's camp. The first one is a combination we learned in ballet.

This is a combination we learned in modern.

Harbor Fest

So our family went to the Harbor Fest today. Here are some pictures I took while we were there.

When we got there, Quinn tried so hard to touch the streamers.

She was so happy once she touched them!

Our Nana and Papa were there with us.

Waiting for the fireworks to begin

This was Quinns first time seeing fireworks. She slept through last year's show!

She was very excited! She kept saying, "Don't get my feet!" and "Go away!"

But by the end of the show she wasn't scared anymore.

We had a great day!

Field day

Our school had its end-of-the-year field day last Thursday. Here are some pictures of the games we played.
First we played our own version of volleyball. Its like the original game, except with a big, heavy ball that takes four people to serve.

Then we played a game where each team took turns launching water-soaked balls at the opposite team. We were supposed to catch the balls, but no one could catch any because of the sun.

Next we had to play a game where two people from each team would run to a table where there were cups full of water and then suck in as much as you could through a straw and then run to a bucket and spit the water out. I did not enjoy this game. After going through that awful line twice, I came up with the brilliant idea of hiding at the end of the line until the game was over :)




Then we played every one's favorite game, murder ball! Two teams on opposite sides of the field would run to the big ball in the middle of the field and then try to push it to the opposing side. Yes, it's a violent game.

It was a fun day!
