Summer Fun

This morning the girls and I went to Country Best Farm to pick some sunflowers and take advantage of the photo opportunity.
After the sunflower field we went to Milky Moo's for lunch and ice cream on this hot day! 
Our last stop for the day was All About Art to paint some pottery. I'm sure no one is surprised that Julia chose a horse and Charlotte chose a turtle! 
We had a fun day soaking up summer!

Happy Father's Day!

The girls woke up Michael with breakfast in bed and his Father's Day present.  When you live in a house full of girls you get your Father's Day present wrapped in camo wrapping paper with glitter tape! He got just what he wanted, a sausage maker attachment for the KitchenAid.

Today was also the first Sunday that we've been to church since promotion Sunday. Julia moved upstairs to the children's floor and Charlotte stayed right where she was since she was in the group ahead of her school group.
Charlotte took this card to church with her to remind her to tell her teachers to pray for baby Sarah Belle. 
Julia has been wanting to make a Julia Child recipe since Miss Julia nicknamed her Julia Child. She had kind of forgotten about it until we saw Julia Child's kitchen at the Smithsonian last week. She has been asking again so today Julia, Charlotte, and I made an Apple Charlotte for Father's Day dessert. It was actually easier than I expected, it just had a lot of steps! The girls had  great time though and it was really good.
This afternoon Granddad, GranDi, Shannon and Sarah came over for a Father's Day cookout. We blew up the water slide and the girls played in it. Sarah didn't have a swimsuit so she borrowed one of mine. When did that happen?! Shouldn't she still be wearing little smocked swimsuits?!
