Ian passed his swimming class with high flying colors! He could go on to Level 2, but our schedule isn't working out for him to be able to participate. He was a little disappointed, but was fine after I told him about Art camp!
On Tuesday we hosted a playdate with a "P" theme. Everything had to start with a "p." We had pizza, popcorn, pretzels, poke cupcakes, pink lemonade, Pepsi, peppers, pickles, potato chips and pudding. We also made puzzles. It was a Perfect Playdate... well, almost!
Monday we went to the Salado Creek to play with friends. Ian had a grand time. Aaron slipped on a rock and bruised his ear cartilege. Strange, I know and it looked horrible. This all while he's half drowning. It's funny as a mother how you freeze in your tracks when something like that happens. Thank goodness my friend, Katie had the mind to go pluck him out of the water. Some days I deserve the Mother of the Year Award. I just hope no one calls CPS.
I've had a busy few days! One of my pharmacy technicians got married on Friday morning. I had the pleasure of going to the wedding and becoming the unofficial wedding photographer. It wasn't planned. As a matter of fact, I arrived and wasn't even sure I was in the right place for the ceremony. It was a small wedding. But I saw the groom and mentioned that I had my camera and his mom became my new best friend. LOL. So I took their wedding photos for them. And for a first timer and amateur, I'd say they turned out okay! She was pleased, but how can you poo poo free photos?
On Saturday, Aaron and I went to a birthday party for a 2 year old little girl. I took photos of her party, too. Fun times!
I have a lot to learn still about my camera, but I am enjoying opportunities to try to capture that "moment!" Hopefully with time and practice, I can master the art of photography. I need a good hobby! :)
So it seems our summer is going to be just full of all sorts of fun! Last week was Vacation Bible School which Ian loved. This week is the start of 2 weeks of swim lessons at the Killeen Boys and Girls Club Natatorium. Ian and his buddies signed up for the same class. It's nice to sit with other mom friends and talk instead of sitting by myself. The boys are doing well listening to the instructor. I'm glad that we found a place here in Killeen instead of driving over to Belton this year. It's been way more convenient!
