Summer Fun

Well, we always have so much fun when Jilian's cousins, Ella and Seth, come to town. We did a lot of swimming because it's so HOT! The girls even swam in just their underwear - no pics posted!


We went to the Frisco RoughRider game, and we even got to watch fireworks afterward. Needless to say, we didn't get many pics - we were just way too busy!

So, we also found this way cool, new dessert recipe!

It's broken up Nilla wafers, layered with strawberries and blueberries, then layered with this mixture of cream cheese, milk, vanilla pudding mix and cool whip. Then, repeat the layers and top with cool whip. YUM! :)

One more thing.....it's finally here! Jilian starts preschool on July 6th. She will be attending Primrose, just down the street. We weren't prepared to have her start until August 17th, when we originally enrolled her, but we got rather short notice at her current school, so we had to enroll her a tad bit early. We went back and forth about where to put her for the last 6 weeks of summer, and decided that it was best to have her enrolled in Primrose (even though Mimi is a little sad she can't keep her all summer - Mimi is a very busy woman!) :)She is very excited to start. When we got home after visiting them last week, she said she wanted to go back! Yay - this will make it a little less traumatic for the parents! And, at the dinner table tonight, we talked about her new school, and she was very excited about it. During the summer, it's sort of 'free play' - just like public schools. Then, in the fall, she will be sat down and taught to in a classroom setting. They have an awesome program, and we are excited about what she will bring home to share with us that she learned that day. I'm sure her first day will still be a little overwhelming (for the parents), but I know she will do well. We'll keep you posted!

That's awesome that she loved visiting Primrose! We were ready to keep her this summer - but I'm glad y'all found something that worked. :) Know that our door's always open - we'll miss y'all!!
