So summer has been pretty nice so far. We sleep in until around 8 am and go through the morning routine of chores, showers and breakfast. Usually around lunchtime we head up to our beautiful neighborhood center the military has provided us in our new neighborhood, and I work out on the treadmill for about 45 minutes while the kids play in the playroom with their friends. We head back home for lunch, eat and play outside til around two o'clock. Then it's off too the pool again. The kids love this. Everyday we swim for about three hours and they are yet tired of it. As you can tell by their tans, they inherited the Swedish side of the gene pool.

This week however, has been completely thrown off schedule. Tony had surgery (yes again) last week and will take three whole weeks to recover. Carly has a really yucky sinus infection and can't stand the taste of her medicine, so it's a major battle when it comes time to give it to her. The only ones having loads of fun are Sam and Kate. They set up a lemonade stand yesterday and at 25 cents per cup made a total of $12.50. Not bad for only being set up for 2 hours. They had a blast and were quite the little entrapreneurs.
