Father's Day Weekend

We had a great time at Dworshak Lake on Papa's boat.  Paige reeled in lots of Coconuts (she was calling the Kokanee, Coconuts).  Silly girl!  Our day of fishing and sun bathing was cut a little short due to the wind, but it was a fun day of celebrating the daddy's!

Summer Fun!

It is slowly beginning to feel like summer, s l o w l y!!!  We are doing a pretty good job at marking fun things off our to do list.  Paige and I took a road trip to Coeur d Alene to get the car worked on.  It was a beautiful day so we stopped by the lake and played in the water and layed on the beach.  That was a great start to our summer!

Curtis, Paige and I took a long weekend and drove to Portland to visit family. Paige had so much fun with her cousins.  Keeley and I ventured out just the two of us and went to IKEA.  I loved that store and actually saw celebrities, the mom and one of the son's from Little People, Big World.  Exciting moment for me!

Paige is finishing up her first year of t-ball.  She has really enjoyed it.  It is so much fun to watch her play.  She can really hit that ball!  She is enjoying the Summer Reading Program at the library.  Next week, Paige will be going to Vacation Bible School with some friends.  She is going through friend/playdate withdrawal so it will be great to get her back with her friends again. 

We have taken several walks to the park and today we actually layed out in the sun. I took along the camera and Paige thought it was so funny to make silly faces. Frustrating for this mom who is a scrapbooker, but I will take what I can get!

Last Days of Kindergarten

This week has been rough for Paige.  She loves school so very much and it has come to an end for the Summer.  In preparation for the Summer, Paige and I made a list of all the fun things we are going to do this Summer.  She reads this list everyday and is excited to get going on all our little adventures.  So far, the weather is not cooperating.  It has been very rainy and windy which is very hard for busy little bodies.  As a mom, I have been trying to take more time to do the little things with Paige.  Sure I will snuggle and watch a "whole" movie with you.  Sure I will stop everytime you say mom watch me.  Sure I will go down the slide.  These little things add up to lots of attention which is what she is needing and craving right now.  We are looking forward to the warm weather and getting to go to the pool.  That is when Summer seems to officially

start!
