catching up

Just lots of fun photos to catch up with. The summer is going so fast and t is almost done !! We have had a couple of busy weeks ..so here are some of the highlights

We got a new playground in town and it is pretty cool .. for older kids and lots of it . Lilja is surprising me with her climbing skills here
.

Bringing violet along 

One day we ended up eating cotton candy  definitely lilja's favorite . I think I might have to get a cotton candy machine 

Is she starting to look older again ??

One of my best friend from holland was in town with her family .. short but oh so fun. Lilja adored her kids and so did I . So much fun !!

Floor and lilja became buddies !!

Any animal and lilja will love it.. yep, a python..

The monsoons are here and lilja is loving it !!

Yep, she caught some and then wanted to measure how much hail and rain fell. A scientist in the making
