Hard to believe that June is half over. I really don't want to think about it! Our summer swim season just ended this weekend. It seems like the season just started and now it is over. We only have the awards ceremony this week and then it is done. Time seems to move faster and faster these days.
It has been quite the summer so far. Last week was my first full week off. The week after we got out, I spent 3 days at a Leadership Conference. I was excited that we heard so really great speakers and I am motivated for August (sort of). My first full week off began with learning that I'd been a victim of identity theft. That was not an exciting way to start the summer! Luckily, I have resolved the issue. It just proves that no matter how careful you are, people can find ways to steal.
Blake has been practicing for cross country already. He runs 3 mornings a week with other kids from the neighborhood. Last week, he volunteered to help with VBS. He was put in the room with 3rd and 4th graders. They must have really worn him out since he came home and napped the first two days. I think he felt it was worth it at the end of the week when he got some thank you notes from the kids. Other than that, he has been at the pool a couple times per week, or ice skating on Friday nights or spending the night with friends. He's got 2 camps coming up in July that he is looking forward to.
Kendall has been busy with swim practice most days. We have already done a little shopping for clothes for next year. She has spent lots of time texting. I think she misses school! Kendall has had a few sleepovers already this summer. She's also been in our pool quite a bit. I know she is pretty happy about being able to walk out the back door and be in the pool. Her first ever camp is next week. This week, we will be getting her packed up and ready. I know that she is excited. (Blake probably is too.)

Car work...
Well, it was my intention to upload some video from the swim season. It isn't cooperating tonight so I will try again tomorrow.
