Summer 2013

Where did the summer go?  We had a great summer full of fun activities.  We pulled the kids out of daycare at the beginning of summer, and our neighbor Libby watched the kids.    She did a great job and we wish her a fabulous sophomore year at University of South Carolina.  The kids loved sleeping in, going to the swimming pool, hanging out at home and just being kids!  Here is the Weatherwax's version of Blurred Lines http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Scp41ZADMY

Grandma Weatherwax took the kids and Libby, along with her sisters Maggie and Rachel to the Ohio State Fair.  They rode rides, watched a pig race and had ice cream.

Another Summer tradition is going to a Dayton Dragon's game with Grandma and Grandpa Weatherwax.  The girls also enjoyed special time with Grandpa going to the movies to see Turbo and Despicable Me 2.

Emma's creativity shines through as she "reads" a book to Kate and Sage...just "precious."  And you have to love the part about Mother and Daddy crying when the little girl went to kindergarten (is that foreshadowing for this week?).

Kate became quite the country music fan this summer with Hunter Hayes being at the top of her list!  Watch out American Idol!

Time to take off the training wheels!  On our second evening out, Emma was able to take off!  As a parent, its quite a workout!  I was glad she caught on quickly.

Another summer favorite with Grandma and Papa is going to Kings Island.  The Nichols family joined them as well.  Bumper Cars, roller coasters, and snoopy ice cream...perfect!
