Long Live Summer!!!

Summer is here - and if you're anything like me that means lots of pictures!! We recently spent a week in Chattanooga, TN (which is a fabulous place for a family vacation, by the way - so much fun family stuff to do!!) and I took a ton of pictures of the kids playing in the fountain, riding the carousel and playing in the water at Grammie's. We did a lot of playing in the water because it was 100° or hotter every day we were there - and for several days her AC was out! {Kermit flail!!}  But today, we went to GG & GrandDaddy's house to swim. I love hanging at the pool at their house. It is beautiful, quiet and really close to our house so buzzing over there for a quick swim is easy to do. That's what we did on my lunch hour today. While we were there, Elizabeth showed me how she can now jump off the diving board!! This is a huge step for her!! And of course I got it on camera!
