July 1: Eric starts swimming lessons today. He refuses to put his face in the water. Evie really wants to swim too, but she is too young and they won't let her. It's 30 minutes of torture for her to have to not be in the pool, and 30 minutes of torture for everyone in the surrounding area who have to listen to her screaming and crying and trying to get in the pool anyway. 

July 4th: Happy Fourth!

July 6: I saw a hummingbird sipping from our agapanthus (lily of the nile). I think he's the first I've seen this season. Must be time to get the feeder out!

July 7: We went to "old macdonald's" with gran and papa steve
