The last days of summer...

Yes, I am aware that as I blog about our final summer exploits it is a balmy 32 degrees outside. What can I say, I am a busy woman! I just couldn't let the year pass me by without adding some of our favorite summer memories from 2010. Due to the fact that Chris was gone much of the summer, we spent a great deal of time at home playing with friends and neighbors. Below is just some of the summer fun.

Sarah and our Neighbor Laura are having a blast on the bouncy house in the 90 plus degree heat!

Luckily, Laura also shares Sarah's passion for all things princess. What a cute Bell she made!


Sarah saved her money to buy this beautiful castle (well at least half of it :).


It made a lovely location for a tea party with the princesses.



Laura loved munching on the crackers, grapes and juice.


We are so sad to hear that she will be moving to Florida soon. Sarah will sorely miss her next summer.


Speaking of moving, we also had our good friends Lily and Liam over for one last play date before Liam before Amy and Liam moved back to Georgia (it seems like we are losing all of our friends...)



Lily and Sarah are cuddling together. We always seem to get some sort of photo just like this when these two are together.


Liam is showing Leah how to play with some of the "big kid toys".



Of course, Sarah would not let this event go without a tea party.


She was a very nice hostess for her guests.



Leah spent much of the summer enjoying her baby toys, like this jumper. All good things come to and end. She has since moved on to bigger and better now that she is mobile.


Our little blue eyed beauty.

We also celebrated Chris's birthday this summer.
Papaw Coleman came over to help celebrate. What a great grandfather the girls have. He is always here for us during the week if we need him (he works second shift and picks Sarah up from school at lunch time).


Happy Birthday Chris! (notice the card...You can't touch this played each time we opened the card. Thanks to Sarah, this was hundreds of times).



The Coleman ladies. Amy is always ready to play. Today she is outfitted in a boa and butterfly wings. Hilarious!
I love summer, and I hated to see it go....
