Summer Snapshot

We've been enjoying some time at  the pool, or pools, this summer.
 Avalyn is a big fan and doesn't seem to mind when water gets splashed in her face.  We already knew Elliana to be a fan.  Max gets concerned that she's a little too much of a fan.  We'll probably have to take up swim lessons next year to have her better prepared for pool time.  She does well at obeying, though.  We've been hitting up the local public pool recently as it has a zero-grade entry that slowly transitions into 1 to 1 1/2 ft depth.  It's just right for Elliana to stay upright, and Avalyn gets to lounge in her baby float. 

My mom came for a visit mid-June, and we had fun hanging out with her.  Our neighbor, Terri, had us over a for a tea party.  It was fake tea but real cupcakes, raspberries, and chocolate.  Mom was able to be a part of that girly adventure.  The week my mom came up we discovered that we have foxes in our back yard somewhere!  We thought for awhile that we had 2 but have since realized there are 3!  They seem rather playful with each other, but the dead rabbit that was left on our sidewalk for a time might have a different opinion of the "playful" foxes!






Tea Time!



Max and our neighbor, Terri, were so excited at the sight of foxes!

Hi Amy,
I apologize for just now seeing the comment you wrote on an adoption blog post of mine on January 2nd. I need to change the setting on my blog to email notification when someone writes a comment. I just happened to go back to this post (which I wrote in November) for a specific reason and saw your comment! I would love to correspond with you! You didn't leave an email or anything and I tried to look you up on Facebook but couldn't find you. Not sure if you still check/use your blog since this most recent post is from July 2013, but I figured I'd give it a shot! You can find me on facebook or email me at rachaeloren@gmail.com :)
