The Making of a Perfect Fairy ...

Emery ready to transform into a fairy!!!

First, you start with pigtails and a ballet outfit ...

... then add wings and flowers in the hair ...

... and voila, a perfect whimsical fairy!!!

Although sometimes even perfect fairies act like little devils!!!

Water Fun Summer Time!!!

It's been a great swimming season this summer! I wish we could swim every day!!!

Emery enjoying the outdoor splash-pad fun-park ...

... while Avery is ecstatically jumping 
through the water fountains!

At swim class, water play is definitely more structured ...

... with proper technique and discipline emphasized ...



... for building up core swimming principles ...

... although, we get to jump and have fun sometimes too!!!

And practice makes perfect, 
especially when we graduate to higher classes ...


... and then go celebrate with ice cream afterwards!!!

Faster than a speeding bullet ...

Faster than a speeding bullet ...
more powerful than a locomotive ...
able to leap tall buildings in a single bound ...

 ... watch out, it's Super Emery to the rescue!!!

Super Emery and her trusty steed Sophie fight crime 
when-ever and where-ever evil may lurk ...

... along with her trusty sidekick Amazing Avery, 
the dynamic duo always is triumphant!!!

Or maybe it's all just a spectacular fantastic dream!!!!

What in the heck is going on here exactly?!?!??

What in the heck is going on here exactly?!?!??

Well, it's either Mommy having a nail polish 
accident or Avery losing yet another tooth!!!

Happy July 4th!!!

We had a blowout Independence Day party with tons of swimming, tons of food, tons of friends, and tons of fireworks!!!

Here is a video of Emery's all-of-the-sudden surprise of swimming across the pool!!!


 Then as night fell, it was time for fireworks ...

 ... tons of crazy "get out of the way" fireworks ...

... with a huge display of colors and explosions ...

... followed by the big mess clean-up of spent fireworks garbage!!!

Then it was time to watch real large-scale professional 
fireworks from our front yard!!!
 
Happy 4th everyone!!!
