Tiptoeing into cyberspace

Well, I'm following the footsteps of numerous friends and family by joining the cyberspace age and starting a blog. We thought it would be a fun way to share the exploits of Ains and Em and a good way to connect with friends and family who are far away.
We've had a great summer. Ains and Emma have spent a good deal of time at "big grammy and pop-pop's" (my parents) house... and especially in their pool. Ainsley is almost swimming on her own and Emma is happy that she finally can stay above the water in her swimmies.
We had a great week with Little Grammy and pop-pop (Chris' parents) as well, that included a trip to a dinner theatre in Gatlinburg which the kids just loved.

Another highlight was our weekend with our small group at the lake house. Contrary to my assumptions, the girls adored riding in a boat (so you can imagine the ribbing I'm getting from my husband and others) and it was really a great time with everyone who came.
The girls start school next week so this week has been squeezing as much fun in as possible- pools and parks and slip n slides, and a trip to a water park with a great friend on Saturday (I'll let you know how that one goes...)
