Hovis Olympics, Birthday Fun and Summer Reading

The girls decided to do their own Olympics here at the Hovis home by doing water sports. The girls decided to do "water tennis" and have a water relay. Do you think they are watching too much TV????

We had a great time celebrating Mom's birthday with family. We had a yummy meal and a very fun Family Home Evening that made all of us howl with laughter! Happy Birthday Mom!







After the party all four girls came back to our house for a slumber party. We stayed up until midnight singing, dancing and playing. Towards the end of the night everyone piled on the sofa to watch "Strawberry Shortcake." I thought they would all sleep in late but I realized I was wrong at 7am when they came to our bed ready to go swimming. We had a fun time with Madelyn and Natalie.





We enjoyed a quiet day at the Library. The girls enjoyed the new computers and reading different books. We found that the "doggie in the window" was named Bailey. Becka enjoyed snuggling with this oversized stuffed animal and Baylee enjoyed reading a book to her little sister.




Using the new computer!







I won!







Can we take the doggie home?




What a nice big sister!

I was out of town and didn't even know the olympics were on until last night! I am glad the girls are enjoying them, and their own olympic sports!
