Summer begins with a bang

So much for lazy mornings and relaxation. Summer began with swim team and softball All Stars for Ellie. This meant a 9:00 swim practice and a 2 1/2 hour evening softball practice. In between I learned that there are all sorts of mommy duties required of all stars. Each girl needs a pennant to hang in the dugout and a lawn sign in front of the house. So each day I had a Michaels craft store run. Then my mom and I have been working in the kids' rooms to get them organized so they can have their own room. I signed up for this craziness and it is really good for Ellie. I am so proud of her. Luckily at each practice Jack has some of his friends so he has been a good sport about going to these practices. The first softball game is tonight so I will update with lots of pictures.

Ellie is a really strong swimmer
The boys don't play their DS the entire practice but I have to say thank goodness for the DS
The decorated car ready for the big game
And yes I was part of the team decorating all those lawn signs.
