Busy Summer already

Summer has just begun and I feel like we have been so busy.  Swim practice is 8-9 Monday-Wednesday with a meet on Thursday, then practice Friday.  I have been trying to make it to the gym at least 3 mornings after swim practice, but that isn't always successful.

The boys have joined the summer reading program and we started going to the Tuesday library program.  Nathan finished his first "real" chapter book this week, he was so excited about it.  I promised him a new Skylander when he finished so he picked out Sunburn.  They also earned a Taco Bell coupon for all their reading.

Nathan's school books came this week, I went through them and started to look at the lesson plans to see what else we would need for the school year.  I also signed him up for the Classical Conversations program so he will be doing that once a week on Tuesdays from 9-12. 

This weekend Matt is out for a boys weekend, pig hunting.  Our boys and I are headed to visit my old neighbor in the panhandle.  She has 3 boys and a girl so the boys are going to have a blast.  We are planning to take the boat out on Saturday and go to Shell Island which is near Panama City.  It will be a new experience for them and I really think they will enjoy it.

Braxton has started to use the puddle jumper in the pool.  He is going really good with swimming, if you tell him to kick his legs he will and he actually swims.  He hasn't quite gotten the whole idea of keeping his mouth shut so he is constantly choking on water.

Next weekend we are heading to TN to visit my Uncle, Aunt, and cousins.  My Mom, Darin, Melissa, and Grant will all be coming along.  It is so nice up there and the boys love playing outside all day long.  On our way up Matt, the boys, and I will be staying the night in Atlanta and going to a Braves game.
