We had a really nice family vacation this past weekend. We went to StoryLand with Isaac and Naomi's family. The pics are up on Flickr. I'll post some of my favorites on the blog this week as well.
It's really nice to take the girls somewhere special and watch them enjoying themselves.

Butterflies!
Grandma got Sadie a kit to hatch butterflies and it was really fun to watch the caterpillars form chrysalids and eventually hatch into butterflies. All five of them hatched!
After a few days of observing the butterflies, it was time to release them.
There one goes!
Goodbye, butterflies!
Thanks for the great idea and the kit, Grandma. We had a lot of fun with this project.

Summer Reading
A few weeks ago, Sadie signed up for the summer reading program at the Lebanon Library.
She carefully wrote down her name and was given a reading log to record what she has read.
If she completes the log by the middle of August, she will receive a little toy, a choice of book and a coupon for a free ice cream cone.
The reading program kicked off with special visit from children's author and illustrator DB Johnson, who we just love.
His new book, Palazzo Inverso, is amazing.
He signed Sadie's copy!

Party Girl
Nellie had a lovely birthday party with Grandma, Grandpa, Bob Bob and lots of her little friends. It was hot and sunny and the kids loved all the Elmo gear.
She's wearing the dress I wore to my second birthday! So cute.
