Is it just me, or is anyone else wondering where the month of June went?  Maybe it's because it's been cool and rainy all month, or maybe it's that we've been quite busy, but I can't believe that next week will be July!  I'm still patiently waiting for summer to start, and hoping that spring won't turn into fall without any summer at all!

We've been keeping ourselves fairly busy.  We have been blessed with non-rainy Tuesdays, which is when our park day is scheduled, so that's been nice.  We've also been participating in the Family Film Festival hosted by Regal Cinemas.  They show a family or children's movie for free on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at select cinemas. 

Despite my good intentions, we've stopped doing school for the summer.  I do this every year!  I mean to continue through the summer, and then we just don't.  Maybe today will be the day that is different, LOL.  We have been taking art books out of the library, though... yesterday we took out a book about different things to do with paint, and then we tried one of the projects. 

I've been doing some reading, which is one thing I looove about summer!  When the kids play outside, I can sit on the step and read to my heart's content.  I just finished The Five People You Meet in Heaven.  I'm also currently reading through The Power of a Praying Wife.  I read Amish Women  last week, and I'm considering starting the Little House on the Prairie series again.  I usually read through it every couple of years, and I think it's been that long, at least!  Our library has cut its hours, so there are fewer evening and Saturday hours for me to go to the library myself, but I'm going to try to get there this weekend to browse.

Yesterday was R's last ballet class, and her recital is this weekend.  I'll be sure to post pics!  Dad and J went last night to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.  That was exciting!

The kids are starting to stir in their beds, and I've already enjoyed over an hour of pure blissful silence, so it's time for me to get started on my day.  Enjoy the rest of your week!
