August 2011

Yep...I'm a little behind BUT I am working on catching up!!
I have my Project Life album for 2011 FINISHED!!!  Yay!!
The girls absolutely love looking through it over and over...that makes it all worth it!!  :)
So check out our August from last year...

This day is becoming tradition!!  We get together with the Brown kids...they all
have a blast!!



We have a great group of friends that we go to the beach with.  This day the tide was coming in and
the kids all decided to frantically build a wall to STOP the water from coming up the beach!!
Remember those days when you actually thought that was possible!!??  I love it!!



Girl cousins at Melanie's birthday party!!


Here are a few of my favorites from our Disney trip...



Our family picture in front of the cake at Melanie's party.



Hurricane Irene knocked out our power so we played some games while it was still light enough.



We were without power for 4 days!!  My dad brought his generator up for us to use...thank goodness!!
We were able to plug in the frig, microwave and TV!!  Thanks Dad!!


Open House in Katie's 4th Grade classroom!!


Melanie turns TWELVE!!!!


The 6th grade doesn't have open house the night before the first day of school but we did go
find her homeroom so she'd know where to go on the first day.


Melanie was THRILLED to get a Vera Bradley for her school bag!!


Make a wish!!


Melanie decided she wanted a Disney themed party for her family birthday.  She wanted to make her
own cake by herself...she did FABULOUS!!






This is amazing to me...these girls put on a show for us everytime we get together!!!
I remember making up shows but never did we actually preform them!!
A round of applause to you girls!!


Well there you have it...August!!  Hopefully September won't be too far behind!!

July POTM 2011

I am trying to get caught up on somethings...good to do during the winter months!!  My Project Life album is one of those things.  I have all the photos in the album and the journaling done.  Now I have to fill in the title and end page.  This (for me ) requires a little scrapbooking...if I remember how!!!  I am excited to get back to doing a little scrapbooking...it's been sooooo long!! 
Here are our pictures from July that are in our 2011 album....

Snacks by the pool!!
 

Forth of July cookout...hanging in the pool with Aunt Kathy.

A HOT day at the beach with friends!!

Happy birthday to Grampy!!

We had a fun time at the HUGE car show in Dedham with Grammy and Grampy.  We were happy to have some cold drinks though...it was a hot one!



Batter Up!!


We went to Rexham Beach in Marshfield and the kids were so excited to see the giant waves!!!  I love this picture of Melanie!!!  She is having a blast surfing the waves!!


Ice Cream Man, Ice Cream Man!!!


It always completes a beach day when we stop at Dairy Queen on the way home!!


Katie and her friends read the book "Ramona and Beezus" and then we went to see the movie together.


Katie was hoping all year that she would have her favorite teacher for a counsilor at dance camp...and she did!!


This was Melanie's 1st year being a CIT...she was so excited!!!  She had loads of fun with her friends too (and a cool counsilor too)!!

Hopefully August pictures will be up here soon!
