GRADUATION DAY

Well we're mov'in on uuupppp......this afternoon was Mimi's graduation day for her swimming lessons. She will be moving up to P-2 (P=pre-school) come this August. The next round of swimming lessons will consist of 10 lessons, 2 weeks straight. That will take her up to one week before school starts. Mimi is having one big busy, fun summer vacation. We have been busy with swimming lessons twice weekly, gynastics twice weekly, storytelling time once a week at the library and Sports Camp nightly this week and playdates in between. PHEW!!!

FUNNY FACES AND HULAS

We had already scheduled a date with Ling Ling prior to sighning up for Sports Camp. Whenever these girls get together it is like TNT they are just looney tunes. Mimi loves making silly faces in front of the camera. She is just one big ham and Ling Ling loves to copy anything that Mimi does.

SKINNY DIPP'IN

Maybe Mimi was a nudist in her past life, who knows? Now and then the weather is warm enough to use the pool. So before we went to Sports Camp Mimi went swimming. I must say that she is quite inovative too. She decided to take the frog wading pool to put into the bigger pool and lay in the sun butt naked or as she calls it "relaxing in Mexico".

SPORTS CAMP

For quite a while mama wanted to know how to post videos on Mimi blog and just by a fluke she did just that. I found out how to do it. Last Sunday night we had our good friends Jim and Michelle over to the house for dinner and Michelle had mentioned about the sportscamp that happens for one week every year here where we live. Since our Mimi is quite energetic, mama thought that it would be a good idea for her to go, plus it gives her a chance to get to know Spencer better. When we got there Spencer was no where to be seen so Mimi was a little apprehensive about joining due to the fact we did not know anyone there. Finally Spencer showed up and all was well again in her little world. I never saw soooooo many kids as I did last night. Seems like the whole town showed up. Of course mama wanted to take pictures and of course as usual did not check the camera for the correct setting. It was later in the game when she found out that the setting was on video. So therefore this morning she decided to do the blog the same way one would put up up the pictures (only hit the video button instead). Lo and behold it worked!!! So from now on I will post more videos along with the pictures.

MIMI'S NEW "BOYFRIEND"

Now that we are starting to feel a bit settled in, mama has started inviting neighbor/friends over to the house for dinner. This evening Spencer and his family joined us for a evening of joy, fun and laughter. While big sis Katarina(12) and big bro Zack (11) were playing Wii, Mimi and Spencer ran around the house like two peas in a pod. Just two kids acting goofy as can be. Pictured here they are watching Chicken Little. Tomorrow mama and Mimi will go over to a nearby elementary school to check out the sports camp that Michelle had told us about. Also we may sighn Mimi up to play soccer this fall. Spencer's dad Jim is the coach.

SUPERHERO CONTINUED

When the work was all done, grandpa went home. He is very worried about grandma. Grandma is scheduled for knee surgery this coming August 12th. She is unfortunately having quite a bit of discomfort at this time and we found out from grandpa that grandma fell last night at their home. Fortunately she is not seriously hurt. After grandpa had gone home, Mimi wrapped herself up in the red, white and blue (a blanket that was given to us by grandma). She then decided to trapse all over town wearing her cape. She and papa had gone to get pizza to bring home for lunch then go and catch a movie "The Space Chimps".
