Insta-summer

 There's so much good about summer. I can't possibly blog about it all, but thanks to cell phone cameras and Instagram, here's a quick pictorial from our second week of freedom:

 (I love that I found this little peeper up at the table waiting poolside--he looked like he was expecting a mixed drink and some company.)

 We went shopping for running shoes, and bumped into a couple of nuns doing the same.

 We paid a visit to some newborn bunnies.

 There was competitive hide-and-seek.

 A visit to Enrique at UMass always lifts my spirits.  I love that my kids love each other.

Reading is an integral part of summer.  I've been immersing myself in some really great writing, including (but not limited to) Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent and Lead

-and-

Some fantastic Ensign articles.

 

Light summer meals.

I love them.

(My family is trying to embrace the scarcity of meat on the menu)

 Swimming.  ALL-in.

 Mini-golf. And extended cousin visits.

 Walks. And random acts of fitness.

 and being able to say

"Gone Fishing."

Happy Summer!
