Summer is Truly Here

Now it really feels like summer. Mara left us last week. We were so sad to see her go, but she leaves on her mission to Atlanta today, so we wish her the best of luck. Anna had her last day of bilingual pre-school yesterday and her dance class also ended this week. Things are starting to wind-down for us. But we've got lots of plans for the summer, including "summer school camp" -- my own version of learning and fun. Plus, we're planning lots of trips to the Badi. The "Badi" is basically a big swimming area along Lake Zurich. Almost every town along the lake has it's own. Today we went to the "Wadi Badi", which is the one in our town. The girls brought their buckets and shovels and had a great time splashing around. The water is actually quite warm.

Tyler is just enjoying the show and wondering when Mom is going to dip his toes in.
