Happy Summer! Looks like maybe I'll be doing a monthly posting. Where is all the time in a day???
What a great June we had. Visit from Gramma and Grampa Schurz to come.

 |
| We took a spontaneous trip in the all-day rain to Boothbay Harbor. When we got there the rain had stopped and it was warm and lovely. It was the prettiest town I've seen so far! |
 |
| Livi and I read a new book at the library that was a journal about fairies. We learned that the best time to spy a fairy is Midsummer's Eve. So, here we are! Fairy lights, tiny cookies, flowers, candles, lanterns, musical instruments and pajamas. We didn't see any fairies, but we sure did look. I think we have a new tradition :) |
 |
| Olivia's Irish faere from grandma and grandpa Schurz. |
 |
| I remember when sleep, or lack-there-of, just about killed me. We still have some tricky nights, but those days seem so far away. Now I really relish the sweet time we share and I love taking pictures of my angel after she drifts into slumber. |
 |
| Olivia painted her boat while Daddy painted his. |
 |
| We love our library! This summer's theme is super heroes. The kids room is all decked out and Olivia loves to dress up in the bat girl costume. |
 |
| Strawberry picking! |
 |
| Oh don't worry, Jeff just roofed the carriage house in two days. In between building the boat and new kitchen cabinets. And teaching. And playing. |
 |
| The summer reading program kickoff. |

 |
| teeny tiny eensy weensy frogs! Olivia loves to catch the tadpoles at library park |
 |
| Daddy found an inch worm. Probably the coolest animal she has ever seen. She played with it for like an hour and made a little home for him. Then it was the saddest thing when we had to let her go back to the garden. Life lessons. |
 |
| this girl loves her corn on the cob. I think she got every last kernel. |
 |
| making a fire for smores. |
