Monday June 27

The Holdaway girls left today.

I will definitely miss them....but they were ready to get home to their mom.

They are such great girls!

This isn't a really great picture.....but I had to get what I could with the boy.

He was on his way out of the picture.

Stinker.

We had so much fun with Bay and Morgan.

Brent, and Cassi took the girls and met Steph and Bruce in Burley.

Madi stayed here so she could help watch Porter while Elsie has speech Therapy.

She also had an evaluation today for Ride For Joy.

We are so excited about this!!!

She gets to start the week of her birthday.

It is horse riding as therapy.

We have been on the waiting list for over a year....maybe even 2.

We are so excited to finally have a chance!

We learned that her horses' name is Elle.

I think it is a perfect fit....Elle and Elsie.

We are very excited for her and we have heard such great things that come from this kind of therapy.

When Dad and Cassi got home we headed to the pool.

It was another hot day.

We saw Sister Roll there and Elsie got to do some swimming with her.

I need to be better about taking pictures at the pool.

Porter is a little nut in the pool.

He loves to jump off the side, and plunge in the water.

He bounces back out of the water and spits the water out and does a little scream.

Pretty great.

Anyway.....I will take more picture next time for sure.

The kids just love the water.

*****

Elsie's eye looks a little worse today.

Poor girl.

She is a trooper.....

It isn't as noticeable when she is wearing her glasses.

So I guess it is time to get back to normal.

But I guess we have to figure out what normal is for us at summer time anyway.
