First Day of Summer Hols

Well then, since we've done the last day of school, we might as well do the first day of summer holidays. Eh?

Sue and I were on tap for the first two days before having a month off from our duties. While I am looking forward to the break, I am also kind of missing them already. Sniff.

There was tablet time (some of it joyfully shared) and makeup time. ↓



The weather in the morning was quite nice. Sue and I sat on the deck while the kids played. JJ worked with the balloon while Danica perfected her handstand. She is getting pretty good at it. ↓



After lunch, we went to DQ (Dairy Queen) for a treat. ↓



Then, we spent some time in the neighbours' pool. By then it was overcast and cool. I went in for awhile but did not enjoy myself as much as usual. The kids had a good time, however. The jumping shots were a little fuzzy. I needed a faster shutter speed. ↓




Sue prefers to sit on the deck; she shot most of the following clips. ↓

We will miss the pictures of your photogenic crew but I'm sure you'll find something to entertain us. Hope you have a fun month planned,

Oh my, that handstand! I tried one the other day: not a good idea. Best left to Danica I think!

The first shot is so sweet. I really enjoyed the video. The kids are so happy and well-adjusted. Looks like a fun couple of days.
