Catch Up Post for Second Half of June

Still desperately playing catch up here, in case it wasn't obvious! We continued to have an action packed second half of June. June was a challenging time for me on many fronts - at multiple times I felt like I was living multiple lives, with so many different strands weaving in and out, and sometimes at such variance with each other.  But looking back at these pictures now, it fills me with joy to see these sweet memories. 

 I attended SIS' teachers appreciation dinner which was so fancy and swanky at the JW Marriott hotel.  

We went to many birthday parties (including for our dear friends and neighbors who have since moved to Beijing):

We celebrated Father's Day and took a field trip with the boys' school:

We went on a junk trip. 

We all went swimming a lot, including Atlantis Day at American Club for early July 4 celebrations (where Lola had a breakthrough in swimming):

It has been so sweet to see the kids develop and get closer to each other and play well together.  May they have each other always.
