Summer!!!


And it's been a busy one, so prepare for cuteness overload!

Our trip to the beach. I didn't get too many pictures, but John did, so check out this link:


It was a super fun (although short) vacation, with swimming, the beach and shrimping. Of course, as usual, the girls seemed to like the hotel pool the best. Still I can't complain, it was right on the beach with an ocean view and everything:


Then we went to Mee-Maw's for Granpa Walter's for their birthday/anniversary party. The girls were a hit at the party.  Mabel in an out of character move totally hammed it up on the microphone, sang happy birthday, and then went wild with the mic, running and singing. 



And more swimming at the hotel pool 



Mabel the priss, hating to get her hair wet




 We got the fancy suite room so the girls could hold a very important weasel club meeting.




And a trip to Charlotte wouldn't be complete without going to Monkey Joe's


 And plenty of fun around the house









But it hasn't all been fun, there has been some very serious work to do:

Mabel takes her song singing very seriously.




She has been learning how to read. Here is a picture of the first book where she actually started sounding out the letters. She knows all her letters and sounds. It's not quite perfect, but she's getting there and I'm sure she'll be reading up a storm in no time. 


With some help from the superreaders



And then the girls had a new business to run - The 






Finished product


Inventing new devices, like this much needed water dispenser


Helping out around the house



Yoga Practice



School with Frances
