{insta-friday.....on saturday....6/30}

insta-friday used to be the only blog post i ever got done regularly and now i'm struggling. my friday's have been really busy lately i guess. :)

this week involved lots and lots and lots and lots of swimming. the middles are in swim lessons and in the summer the classes are twice a week for a half and hour instead of once a week for 45 minutes. add to that summer swimming and i'm not sure one bathing suit is going to last the whole summer!

last friday we went to the beach for a while in the am.

last friday night i participated in the realy for life with work. it was fun and for a great cause. i was only there for a little while but i managed to get 4 miles in. :)

this was so cool. they spelled out hope with luminerie bags on the bleachers. :)
