First Week of Summer

Summer time is here! This has been the first official week of summer. Other than Evan's weekly speech with Ms. Sarah, we have a pretty open schedule. This has made for a lot of time in the pool and playing sonic on the boys new xbox 360. Derek let them play his once, and they wanted to be on it all the time, so we bought them a used one of their own. We are not vacationing this summer. Derek is just planning on taking a week off and we will go to ocean breeze and the beach and of course spend a lot of time in our own pool. Carter and Evan are swimming really well without floaties. Evan is not very good at doggy paddling, but swims like a fish underwater. Carter is getting really good at swimming both ways. Sully is jumping in this year and has no fear of going underwater. We are still trying to stay on top of reading and writing for summer for Evan. Kindergarten was such a big year for him. In fact, when Mrs. Harbaugh and Mrs. Gregory started talking about going to first grade, Evan lost it in class. Mrs. Harbaugh said he was crying so much he couldn't talk. He doesn't want to leave his teachers and friends, and is nervous about 1st grade. We have had lots of talks about getting to do PE and eat lunch at school and the fact that some of his old friends will be in his class.
