We’ve had a couple weeks of supreme summer-like weather, and since tomorrow is June, I’m declaring it summer ’round here.    Because of all our sunshine, those in charge of our neighborhood pool decided to open it early, which really makes it feel like summer.  This is one of the many times of year when we feel so blessed to live where we do.

My guys enjoying the pool this evening…

PS – It’s Monday morning now and we’ve just discovered that Ethan has grown nearly 1 1/2 inches in the last three months!  Seth made a remark about how big he is, and Ethan went and stood next to the spot on the wall where we’ve done some measuring and marking.  Seth went to check him out and noticed that the last time we did it was on Feb 25 (to mark his 7 1/2 years).  And he was 1 3/8 inches taller than that mark!  53 1/4 inches now.  No wonder some of his pants have suddenly become short.  It’s a good thing we’re into shorts weather now!
