The Rest of June - Dancing, swimming & playing...

This is basically the last of the June pictures...  Anton reading bedtime stories - a big treat for the girls!

I have taken the girls to swim at whatever pool Anton is working at a few times.  This has been a fun thing to do this summer!  That's Anna under the water.  She is becoming quite the little fish!  The pools have those little life vests.  Emma hardly ever wears them, but she had fun swimming around in it.  She finally started dunking her head under water this week so hopefully she will be swimming soon.

Anton hard at work!

This was one day after VBS - the "red" day.  It actually rained that day, and the girls were excited to go stomp in puddles and get their umbrellas out.

Here's some videos of Anna singing at church that Sunday.  She's so cute with the little dance.  She's looking back at the video screens of the kids dancing on the DVD. 

And the end of the song... you can hear Emma's sweet voice in this one. :)

Here's a few pictures from their dance/gymnastics class at The Little Gym.

Emma is waving at me. :)

They are using the hula hoops to practice plie's in a certain position.

Anna holding baby James.  She LOVES him so much!!!  Even if she gets to hang out with Joanna (like at Bible Study or swim lessons), she always asks to go to their house so she can love on him.  It's so sweet of her BFF to share her baby brother!

Anton spent some time teaching himself to play the guitar.

The church had a Father-Daughter sock hop a few weeks ago.  It was so fun for them AND for me (I got to stay home by myself)!! 

Of course Anna's BFF was there with her daddy too.

Eating ice cream.  I thought they were serving hot dogs, so I sent them without any dinner.  Oops!!!  They didn't seem to mind & I seem to recall they had a semi-healthy snack when they got home. :)

This is how Emma smiles when she says "cheese" or if she is told to smile for a picture. 

Here's Anna trying to hula-hoop. :)

Anton's mom got him some new soccer shoes.  He's looking forward to playing again this year!

Anton's first ever paycheck!!!  We were at the bank cashing it.  He didn't want me to take the picture, which is the reason for the goofy face.  I bet he'll be glad he has it someday when he's teaching his kids about money though!!!
