The Concept of Time
Lately, when the girls are talking about something that happened in the past, they start the story with "A long time ago, when I was younger". The funny thing is, they might be talking about something that happened four months ago, or this morning! It's pretty much any time that is before the present moment! A long time ago, when they were younger!
Tradition
It is a Webber family tradition to have strawberry shortcake for dinner on the first day of summer. For those of you that are worried about how we feed our children...don't worry; we used yogurt instead of whipped cream and banana bread instead of cake! Anyway, it's a tradition that Carey and I look forward to from the time fresh local strawberries start showing up in the grocery stores. Probably by next year the girls will know enough to look forward to it also! It was a BEAUTIFUL evening to eat out on the patio, too!

Gilroy Gardens
On Wednesday morning, our dear friends the Orlandos called and invited us to go to Gilroy Gardens with them. We love the Orlandos and had so much fun with them. We had a little unplanned "park warm-up" when we pulled up to a locked gate at Gilroy Gardens at 10:00. Apparently they don't open until 11:00. So, we went to a playground not too far away and played until around 11:00, then went back for a second try. The second time we made it in, and once we got in, we had a blast.
*Thanks to Unky for all the great pictures taken on his awesome, new camera:)

Growing Up
The girls are really seeming so grown up lately. I feel like they are practically ready to go off to kindergarten. They look older and are having such good conversations and are just so fun right now. Anyway, case in point, the other morning Abby brought the hair clip that she picked out to wear that day and started to hand it to me. Then, she stopped and said "No, I'm capable," and proceeded to successfully put it in her hair. Yep, she hardly needs me anymore!
