working on their giant butterflies (above)

We've had a busy week, uncharacteristic for us it seems.  Sierra had her first VBS experience at the church down the street from us in the evenings, which brought with it tears and exuberance from her, at any given time.  Overall we think she had a great time.  Ethan enjoyed having us to himself in the evenings, and spent time mowing with Andre (a favorite of his), and watching some Olympics.  Included in our week was the annual library carnival one morning, then a playdate, and a few other things I just can't remember!  We enjoyed one morning of quiet at home, working on art projects, and then swimming in their little pool every afternoon, and more Olympics in the evening (Andre loves to watch this, and Sierra has enjoyed the gymnastics).
