Jam packed June!

It's officially summer vacation time and I couldn't be more excited!!!  Here's a quick recap of June. It was awesome for the most part but let's be honest, I just want to enjoy summer :)

Blake's lax team was in the JRM Baggataway Memorial tournament on June 10. They won 1 game, I think but had some close ones and had a lot of fun together!

Reese's grade 1 class participated in a Christmas concert this year and Blake and Em's classes participated in a spring concert on June 14. Their music teacher is so talented and produces such great concerts, it's always a pleasure to watch.

Reese lost her1st lost tooth on June 16 but she actually lost two ... she had a tooth that was actually 2 teeth fused into 1!  She she really lost her first 2 teeth :)

We celebrated Father's Day on June 18th!

June 21st was Make Music Day, an event that was held in numerous locations across North America!  Dominelli Music decided this would be a great day to have a recital and Reese decided to participate. She played The Lion Sleeps Tonight at the Naked Cyber Cafe :)

June 24th brought Blake's last lax game for the season. They played in Sherwood Park and after wards had fun at the cool park near the arena and then at BP's with some teammates. It was a good season but had we been in a tier more suitable to us, we would have won a few more games!!

On June 24th Grandma and Grandpa took the kids for a sleepover and some boat/lake time!! They had fun trying out the new kneeboard and tubing!

Blake has played 3 on 3 hockey in the summer for a few years now but this year we didn't sign him up, as we'd be away for most of the games. But we just happened to be home on the 25th and so he was lucky enough to get to play with Ryan and Max, 2 of his best buds.  He hadn't skated in a few months and was happy to be back on the ice.

My vacation began on June 26th ... let the good time roll!!  lol!  I am totally enjoying my vacation time and will do a summer re-cap at the end of it all but in the mean time I plan to try to enjoy every minute!

The last week of school was fun, with games day on the 26th. Always a fun day and for some reason the organizers get lucky and it's always a sunny, hot day!!  I volunteered again this year but there were so many volunteers, they didn't need me the entire day.

On June 28th Emerson got her ears pierced!!  She was so brave but teared up when they actually pierced the ears, more out of the thought of it then anything!  She says it didn't hurt ;) Grandma and Grandpa came to watch and then we went out for a celebratory Starbucks before heading to the last soccer of the season!

On the last day of school (June 29th) we met Berlyn at Marble Slab and then spent the evening at the park.  It was a gorgeous day and a great way to kick off summer!!

Speaking of kicking off summer, we had our 2nd annual 'Schools Out' spray park day with school friends today!  Another warm day and a great day with friends :)

I won't be posting this summer, as we won't be home much but hopefully I'll get to a "Our summer was the best!" post in September!!  Have a wonderful summer!!! Talk to you in September :)
