Sean took this photo of the kids fighting over their favorite dessert from Chili's. I had gone to KC with a friend to shop so Sean took the kids out to lunch as a treat. Patrick finally clued in that they only go to Chili's when I am gone... just many more restaurants that I would rather go to instead.
She even plays by herself.
Sleepover with Megan every night that she can.
This girl can rally for a photo anytime. She was pretty much hugging the trash can at Megan's volleyball game because she thought she was going to throw up and she certainly looked like it... until I got out the phone to get her photo. Instantly perked up for a few seconds.
Megan jumping at volleyball camp at KSU. Only shot I got before she spotted me.
In the five days between renters we had a new roof put on. No more leaks, no more stained metal roof, and no more balcony that we couldn't fix, no matter how many times we tried. Now I just need to have the ceiling below it fixed one last time. UGH. The house is in great shape now though, ready to sell in 18-24 months!
Better shot of the new shingles. I spent some time driving around to see what shingles were put on other stone houses in town and this is the closest to looking like a slate roof.
Cleaning the balcony for the last time now that it's a weird little closet off the loft.
A rainbow after weeks of rain and flooding. Now it's so hot that I am going to have to turn the sprinklers back on. We did miss out on a whole month of watering which often runs us $300. Score!
Reading to herself in the car, pretty much the dream child.
Patrick finally broke the screen after months of kicking balls at the side of the garage. Better than the actually window breaking I guess.
So proud of her creation. I was just happy that for once it all got cleaned up when they were done.
Megan serving at her parks & rec game. Caroline gave her some pointers and now she is doing much better this season. I think just two more games to go and then the tournament. June has been kind of too much and yet nothing compared to what other people are doing with their kids. I didn't sign up for much but what I did pick has a lot of days. Between the three younger ones we are out at First Tee every day. Then the older two go to STEM classes four mornings a week. Megan has volleyball games and practices four times a week (and Anna goes to practices too). Then we just have the occasional birthday party, or soccer tryout, or swim lesson. Things will start to taper off now though and then they will be bored and trapped inside by the heat.
