Phineas & Ferb lied!

There is not 104 days of summer vacation. There were 74. Here's how we spent them:


Taking a ferry ride from VT to NY on our way home from our Vermont trip. Sunshine lost her 2 front teeth while we were in Vermont. Good thing Mommy had the sense to bring her little tooth box from the Tooth Fairy!











Playing on the beach & in the waters of Lake Champlain. Chilly, chilly Lake Champlain.

We also spent a lot of time at the pool where we saw some friends from school & made some new friends. Sunshine's swimming improved so much this summer. No need for floaties, she swims underwater like a mermaid, & dives down to retrieve things. Yesterday she lost a swim race b/c the boy she was racing against realized he was losing to her so he reached over & pulled her hair. His cousins told on him & his grandfather put him in time out for close to 30 min!









Reuniting with an old friend & discovering that you both love sand boxes, squirt guns, cartoons & hot dogs.

Being bummed that he doesn't appreciate a pink bedroom, barbies & doll houses.















Deciding ballet camp is a lot of fun & that you do want to take lessons (again) in the fall.




Tomorrow is the first day of first grade. Friday was spent doing some back to school clothes/school shopping with a friend & her girls (Sunshine's friends). Today we're enjoying a lazy Sunday morning & will go swim this afternoon. Hopefully Sunshine & I can get in a back-to-school manicure as a treat for her.
