Spring.. Summer... Where Does Time Go..

There is always an excuse to not get things done. Always! This spring/summer we have been a bit pre-occupied with our latest purchase... We shall save that little project for another blog. But what I really want to have documented 20 years from now is our cute little girls. The warm weather has treated them great!

This year on JuJu and Poppy's spring drive back to Chicago they arrived in Lawrence on JuJu's birthday. They girls were SO proud of the cake they baked and decorated.

Taking care of their Vivi

Juliet has a love/dislike relationship with her little cousin. Lets face it, Viv garners attention which the previous baby of the family doesn't always like.

Meme however is a dotting big cousin who takes very good care of her Vivi.

A lovely Easter morning collected Easter eggs at Alvamar with a whole football team of Raintree buddies.

The pool is open, must mean it is summer in Kansas!

4th of July at Lake of the Forest! No dock jumping injuries this  year! But we did make it in time to join in the parade. Amelia rode a scooter and Juliet got pulled in a wagon while eating candy.

The girls are old enough to learn that you can ride in the back of a pick-up truck, right?

Girls, girls and more girls. Amelia, Sophia, Juliet and Norah. This year we added two new girls, Ruby and Tessa to our 4th of July festivities! Like their big sisters they were amazed at their dad's triathlon times :)  

A trip to the park in your swimsuit means summer is really in full gear!

Amelia aka Elsa helping me with our big project but more on that later....
