4th of July, Swimming and a Brand New School!!


We forgot the camera when we went over to our friends house for their annual block party complete with kids bike parade, but we snapped these when we got home just to mark the date anyhow! :)
Right after the 4th, Ayden participated in the Amberly Swim Clinic at the pool where they practiced all 4 strokes, did some diving practice and some fun games too. The clinic was intended to prepare them for the swim team that was to come in late July. Ayden thought the clinic was a bit long each day (for a week) and it was, two and a half hours each of the 4 days they had it!! As you can see from this photo (that I took with my cell phone!) Ayden did pretty well at diving!
On July 7th, we attended the ribbon cutting ceremony for Ayden's new elementary school, Alston Ridge!! It was exciting because this school was just built in the last two years to be a "green" school and was added to Wake Co public school system because the area out here in west Cary has been rapidly growing! They had dignitaries from the Town of Cary for the ceremonies and we were introduced to Ayden's new teacher! More photos to come...
My little Scooby Doo lover!! I can pretty much say that he is obsessed with "Obie Doo!" He wants to watch the movies or shows all the time and sings the theme song quite a bit! We couldn't resist indulging him with these fun pj's to satisfy the obsession! :)
