We were very lucky to have 3 friends stay with us for a week while their parents went house hunting in New York. So Matt and I became the parents of 7 children under the age of 10. What a fun week!!! While there were a few challenges, we couldn't have asked for an easier time. My girls will miss you now that you are headed off to NY. Good Luck!!! We were too busy for pictures, but here are the few I took while they played in the water in my backyard.

Ruth and Lauren
We took them at the university and they were AWESOME!!! My kids made so much progress. I can't wait for them to take them again next year.
Sturgis Falls
The biggest party of the year in Cedar Falls. Everyone comes home for this weekend. We went to the children's parade (aka children dressing up how they want and walking down the street - mine went as fairy princesses - of course), the talent show (where the younger version of my clogging class took second place -way to go), and then to the parade the next morning. It was a fun filled weekend.

Fourth of July
We were here in CF for all the fun. We started out the morning by having a bike ride in the park, slip 'n slide in the backyard, then washing our van and eating Popsicles. That was all before lunch. In the afternoon we watched Tangled, went to a good bye party for some friends from church and had a BBQ. We finished off the evening with fireflies, pop it's, and fireworks with friends. It really was the BEST fourth of July ever. I love spending time together as a family.
