I've been neglecting you, poor blog

It's been nearly a month since my last post.  A lot has happened since then, and it seems like I rarely post about family things anymore because I'm too busy living what's happening to post about it.  And that's as it should be.  :)  Twitter is so much easier - less involved than sitting down and typing out a post, uploading pictures, etc.

That being said, I have two Stitch Fix posts that need to go up, and I'll try to get back into the blogging habit soon.  I know I need to get another Europe post up soon so that we can all move past that day long ago when Jamie missed his flight to Paris!


Gisèle has finished 2nd grade (all A's all year!) and will be moving on to 3rd this fall.  She's so ready, and is really excited about being able to start choir now that she's old enough.  She's still in gymnastics, and will be doing a couple weeks of swim lessons starting next week.

Miles graduated from pre-K and will be starting kindergarten this fall at the same elementary school Gisèle is at.  He'll be doing swim lessons with her, as well, and they're attending a day camp this summer together.  Hmm... maybe we should plan some time apart for them!

Jamie is doing great at work and enjoying listening to the Royals kicking butt.  We've both become fans of The Big Bang Theory, and watching DVDs of past seasons (currently borrowed from the daughter of a colleague) is one of our favorite ways to relax together.

I'm preparing for a trip to Portland in just a few weeks for my cousin Cassandra's wedding (yay!), which also happens to be our 3rd annual Sisters Weekend (double yay!!) and I CAN'T WAIT!  In the meantime, I just started kickboxing (seriously just started - tonight is my second time going) and am trying to survive.

We just had a fun visit from Jamie's parents, who we don't see nearly as often as we'd like.  They spent a few days here and we got to play a lot of games, eat some good food, and visit the zoo together.  Next up (tomorrow!) is a visit from my brother Matt and his family, and I can't remember the last time we saw all of them together!

I'll try to get better at taking pictures, which hopefully will prompt more blogging!  I'll leave you with a blurry phone photo (all I seem to get lately) of the kids a couple weekends ago.  This is our life:
