The Joys of July



Well, summer is here & the kids are still finding lots of ways to have fun. We are having a blast with our laid back schedule. The kids are doing library's reading club and we go to the pool almost every day. I love summer!

We got a playscape & Dylan help Daddy build it. You know it was great experience for him since he's wants to be a builder (that's what he says he's going to be when he grows up!)

Another thing we look forward to each summer is Summerfest. The annual event at our church. Alyssa had a birthday sleepover for her best bud, but Lauren & Dylan still had a ton of fun! I have to say it was very strange without Alyssa with us. Something was missing!


My kids never cease to amaze me with their creativity and their imaginations. . After realizing things had been too quiet for a long time, I found Alyssa giving pedicures to her little brother & sister. I thought it was super cute!
Alyssa is such a great big sister. I don't know what I would do without her. Both her little brother & sister adore her. She was taking the time to sing nursery rhymes with Lauren. So stinkin' cute!!!!
It's not summer around here with a little sprinkler time from the Balko kids. They love it!!!
