tiger mountan peasant song

I heard this song for the first time about a month ago. I love it. (Aren't these sisters amazing? And I love how they look at each other at the beginning and end.)

Then I played it for the girls, and Mila fell in love, too. Now she asks to hear "the girl song" every day. And this is what it looks like as she listens.

Today at lunch:

Yesterday morning (in which Kapria interrupts with a knock):

swimming!

fourth of july celebration

On Sunday we went to my aunt's neighborhood luau. They had a bounce house, roasted pig, the bird man, horse rides, and games for the kids. It was a lot of fun.

Here's Kapria practicing for the hula hoop contest:

We spent the weekend at Nonny and Grampa's, and on Monday we went swimming and had a barbecue with friends. Mila was tired (no nap), so she got mad every time I tried to get a picture of her. Come to think of it, none of us look that great in any of these photos. Oh well. Have to document our holiday anyway, right?

Kapria loves being in the water. She hardly got out the entire time we were there.

The girls were so exhausted that they fell asleep in the car on the five minute drive back to my parents' house. We decided to just drive home, since it was 7pm and they'd stay asleep for the night. So sadly, no fireworks for us this year (again). That means my girls have yet to see any fireworks. Ever. In their lives.

Still a great weekend with family. And fireworks next year FOR SURE.
