What's in the boxes Dad?

After a few hours and many hands helping, the girls were ready to bounce and haven't stopped since we put it up. Brings back memories for me of every summer spent in Maine visiting my grandparents and going to to Old Orchard Beach. I think my parents must of saved all year so I could spend their hard earned money to let me jump on the trampoline. The trampoline was located right on the beach and besides loving to bounce, the temperature of the water at the beach was approximately 55 degrees and that was in July, so we needed some way to get warm before we dove back in the chilly water.
Aaah, memories. I just remembered another way I helped by Dad spend his hard earned money and that was buying frozen Milky Ways on a popsicle stick. Hummmm...might need to put some bars in the freezer and try some while I'm watching the girls bounce.

Our exchange student has arrived!

On the morning, after we arrived back from CT, we drove to the airport and picked up our exchange student who will be spending the school year with us. She has brought an amazing gift to our family as well as loving to cook, she's helping the girls with their Chinese and we're helping her with her English.
