Memorial Day, Sleepover, Stories, Piano

It's Memorial Day weekend. (So thankful for the soldiers who fight for freedom on behalf of our country...) I love long weekends with the family. The kids had their first swim of the season in the pool. How they and Greg can get in the freezing water - I don't know! We also warmed the hot tub so that helps. It has been a beautiful sunny weekend in the low 80's.

The girls tonight are having a "sleepover" with each other tonight. They are all piled up in Shelby and Keely's room on the floor. They were so cute, all giggly and silly.

Daddy told one of his amazing bedtime stories to them. Let it be remembered that Daddy tells the best stories. How he comes up with them "on the fly" I don't know! The girls will ask him to combine, for instance, The Chipmunks with Narnia or Narnia and Laura Ingalls, and he comes us with some hilarious story. They all think they are funny, but I think Shelby being the oldest at this point gets more of the jokes. She can't contain herself sometimes.

Jesse just loves the pool, well actually, the hot tub. (Pool still is a little cold.) He gets a big smile on his face and gets a kick watching the girls.

Shelby had her first piano recital yesterday. She did great. She also had a part in the skit that the students did. One thing that Greg and I notice about her is that she rarely gets rattled/nervous about anything. I believe this is a good thing most of the time! She didn't get nervous about the recital or even her first Guild performance last week (where she gets judged).

Thank you Jesus!
