Summer's almost over...bluh

The best season of the year (in many people's opinion, not really mine) is almost over. Or at least what we consider summer, anyway. We watched the kids get on the school bus this morning, so that kind of made it seem real. This summer has been one of the best I can remember, but it has flown by. Reagan turned one (and he is so much fun at this stage). We took an awesome vacation to Florida. And unfortunately, but kind of good too, I am not working, so I have been able to be home with Reagan for the last part of it. It has been a lot of fun. We have had lots of park trips to play and watch Daddy play church softball. We have gone to the lake (Waveland and Raccoon) with my sister, Matt, and her 2 kids. Pig shows and county fairs to attend. Just a lot to do, but so much fun anyway. My computer is not working, so I am stuck using our old laptop, which is VERY slow and has no picture editing software; therefore, I don't have many pictures to post (can't stand red-eye, so I won't post those pictures until I can edit them).

Here is a picture of the 3 of us from the lake. This was Reagan's first experience in lake water. He was kind of shocked at first, but he got the hang of it eventually and enjoyed it, I think.


Last Thursday was Willow's (Michele's, Reagan's babysitter, daughter) 4th birthday, so Reagan and I joined Willow, Fiona, and Michele for lunch at the Mayberry Cafe and a trip to the Avon park. We had lots of fun.


Here are the kids at the Mayberry Cafe. The birthday girl got to wear a special hat.


Fiona and Reagan enjoying the swings at the park.


It was a beautiful day, but kind of hot. Reagan was so thirsty, he had to take lots of drink breaks. It looks like he was about to fall out of his swing, but don't worry, he wasn't.


We tried to do a group picture, but unfortunately, we waited until the end of the trip when Reagan was overheated and just plain exhausted. He didn't cooperate too well. His friends look so worried about him.


We hope everyone else has had as great a summer as we have!
