(witty title here)

I just sat for a good minute thinking of a witty title for this post, but alas, nothing. Man, I am rusty.

Things have been slow lately. It has seemed like we will never close on our house. But we are finally only 10 days from closing. Jon, Sara and Kate came from London to help us pass time. It was beyond great. I did my very best to convince them to move here with us, unsuccessfully I believe.

Here is a glance at some of our lazy days...

What are they looking at?

...this.
Once Jon got here there was a LOT of this...

Showing off their new bedding, or something?

Heading to the lake

Bennett was so nice to Kate the whole time. He would just pat her head. He was trying to let me know he is ready for a sibling. It didn't work.

Kate could have played in the sand hours. Actually I think she did.

Swimming with daddy.

With a little motivation from having a new audience Christian mastered the HIGH-DIVE. Seriously? He's barely 3.5. I love how he has to put his hands in diving position and keep them together until he lands in the water.

Ava also got up the guts to go off the diving board. No high-dive for this smart cookie. She is swimming SO well. Who would have guessed that a year ago? Not me!

So Jon, Sara and Kate remember all these good times?...please oh please come back...for good.
