Whew! The summer flew by! I can't believe it's September and we're back in school!
Corinne started the month with basketball camp at Bowdoin College and had a great time. Her "report card" at the end commended her on her great attitude and increased skill level.
Ayla went to art camp in Yarmouth and impressed us at her art show with her mobile, paintings, and fairy houses. She made a bird nest out of seaweed, complete with handmade bird eggs. She loved being able to swim, as the camp was on an island in Yarmouth.
Sophie didn't attend any camps, but she left the steps and started swimming in the pool! She is now comfortable swimming with her life jacket or in her inflatable donkey ring. Her personality is more and more animated every day!
Grandma Connie came for a visit in mid-August and the girls had an absolute blast with her! They had water balloon fights (which Trevor and I were victims of), swam in the pool, ate gelato in the park, played at the beach and just acted silly together. We miss her already!
We went camping in Kennebunk at the beginning of July for a family reunion. Uncle Jeremy, Aunt Amanda, Ava and Owen stayed with us at the campground and we all had a great time staying up late and sleeping in the tent.
Ayla had several girls over to swim, eat cake and ice cream and play
yard games for her birthday party. All of the girls had lots of fun and
Ayla was a gracious hostess!
We went camping Labor Day weekend at Cupsuptic Lake with three other families. The kids had a blast running around the campground, swimming, and eating smores. We went on a great hike up Bald Mountain, which had amazing views from a tower at the top.
The school year is off to a great start and both the girls really enjoy their teachers. I look forward to updating you in another month!
