Fun in the Sun Summer 2010 part I

































































So my summer is crazy, and I thought to save time I would make one Summer post now, and again at the end of the year. So far this summer we had Romy and her Family here for 2 weeks. We had Dylan for 2 weeks, AnnaBelle's birthday, and the 4th of July. We had a camp out at my parents house, and that was fun until the wend started blowing and snapped our tent poles. The tent fell in on us and we ended up sleeping on my parents living room floor. We had so much fun with Dylan, and wish he could have stayed with us longer. Maybe he will be able to come for longer stays as he gets older. I have 2 girls I am watching this summer, so they add to the fun.
