Team Up Thursday

 

It's not hard to take pics of Summer here in S. Texas.  But I'd say it's pretty weird that both Megan and I chose signs of Summer to photograph when our theme this weeks was "signs".  The girls got in the pool weeks ago but nothing tells us Summer is coming like the girls getting the pool itch.

Another sign that Summer is coming- school is out today!  I don't know who is happier, them or me.  It turned out to be a great year for both.  Natalya made straight A's all year and was commended on both her reading and math TAKS tests.  I surely saw her growing up in many ways this year.  She actually gave me the first, "Mom, don't bother me I'm with my friends" look about a month ago.  Sheesh.  Vienne cried every day as we dropped her off from the beginning of school into December .  Towards the end of the school year, she just came home and would say, "Momma, I said I missed you today but I didn't cry."  She still wants me around.  I think she'll always be my baby.  She's reading now and yesterday read a sign as we were driving and said, "Momma can I really read now!"

Pics tomorrow of Vienne's dance recital.  Trust me, they're cute.
