June is for partying

We had a great Father's Day weekend with beautiful weather.  Jamie had a end-of-the-year party for his fellow teachers on Saturday, and some of them can party hard!  Sunday we did church and lunch with my parents, and then headed over to the Donoghues for dinner.

Happy Father's Day, Daddy!

Guys hanging by the pond

The kids and I made a gift for the king of Lego...

Our address sign was super lame, so we added
some character (so classy)

The start of the teacher party... so many shots...

Earlier this month we hosted a bunch of Maggie's friends for her belated birthday party... since it's hard to have a pool party in December.  It was a total success - the pool is amazing, it just keeps kids happy and entertained for hours!  I also planned a scavenger hunt (Maggie loves solving clues) that turned out to be kind of intense with 10 girls frantically looking for answers... at the end their treasure was a pineapple pinata that took a lot of work to break!

Hula chicks

She had a mix of friends from school, her old school and
the neighborhood - they got along great!

Getting ready for their dance-off-dives

June also meant the end of the school year and the end of soccer season.  The girls both did really well and are excited to be moving up a grade!  Their school had a fun end-of-year event with bounce houses and other fun activities.  For the summer, Jamie and the girls are going to camp in Grosse Pointe a couple days a week, and he is home with them the rest of the week.   

Maggie's girl troupe

Ben loved the obstacle course... probably
climbed this 25 times!

Field Day fun!

Ready to compete!

Last game for Girl Talk!

Love these Unicorns!

Very proud with their medals

Evie's class each had to come up with a topic for "Teach the Teacher" day.  Evie decided to teach them about soccer, demonstrating dribbling, pull-backs and fast footwork.  Her teacher sent me this photo and said she did a great job!

I'm here to tell you about soccer

We let the girls have some friends over to swim last weekend, and it turned into a fun barbecue!  Evie was thrilled because she lost another tooth!

All the blood
I loved how her girlfriends were there to support her!

If only we could reach the ground, we'd be unstoppable!

2-minute meal for the kids, then back in the pool!

Baby Jane was dedicated earlier this month, and was such a good little girl the whole time! 

So good for Mom and Dad!

Family!


Some other random shots:

First day of camp!

Best buds

Did my annual golf tournament with some fun people
(and it was clear I only golf once per year)


Daddy is brainwashing them into Lego junkies

The girls' piano teacher said to start bringing Ben, so now
he gets like 5 minutes of teaching too!

Ready to continue our summer fun!
