Spent the afternoon swimming in Grandma's pool. All of the cousins were at ballgames so it was just Sydney, Shaun and Mommy in the pool. Grandma sat in her lawn chair and watched us. On the drive home, the kids were so tired that they fell asleep. The pool does that to you!

I had a funny Sydney story from last weekend and I don't think it got posted. Shaun had quite a little attitude thing going on and at one point I told him to lose the attitude. Well, later in the day, I was driving with both Sydney and Shaun in the van. Sydney was trying to have a pleasant conversation with Shaun and he turned his back on her. Sydney looks at him and says, "Lose the attitude Shaun."

Moving right along. Last night we went to Indianola to watch the hot air balloons. When Shaun saw his first one going over head he said, "That balloon pop!" It took awhile before he was convinced that the balloons weren't going to pop.

We had a great spot to watch. We parked at the Indianola middle school and the balloons flew directly over our heads. And I didn't take my camera. Then, when it was over, we went out of town the back way so that we could continue watching the balloons and we were able to watch two of them land in fields near the car.

The picture above was taken in June. Sydney was trying on the Speedo goggles. She looks a little bit like an alien if you ask me. The papers are from Melissa Rose's freebie "Antonym Collection V1" at oscraps.com The font is Joyful Juliana.
