Vienne's World is back folks!!

Sorry for the extended hiatus. So much has happened since my last post (well, not really), but I'll be posting some highlights from June 2013 till now. And I promise to do a better job at keeping this blog up-to-date.

Without further ado, let's start with June! We moved from Eugene to Salem for Poppa's new job at Willamette University and we found a lovely (and very affordable!) house, with a great backyard and fire pit, for rent in Salem. Vienne loved to run around in the backyard all summer. Also, in June, Vienne's aunt, Arianne, paid us a visit!  We went to the beach and visited the Oregon tradition that is The Enchanted Forest!

From the archive: Princess Day 2013!

Vienne was a princess a few months ago (not like she isn't everyday though!!).  The fee went to help a local charity and in return, Vienne had her nails, makeup and hair done. Then she got to put on a pretty princess dress - complete with tiara and wand - and have her picture taken. It was super fun!

So long, goodbye

Today was a little sad. While it wasn't Vienne's last day at Playdates childcare, they did throw an early birthday/going away tea party for her. Danielle and I attended, and we had proud smiles on our faces, but also proud tears in our eyes. Big thanks to her wonderful teachers: Brenda and Stephanie!

The swimming pool!

The swimming pool in our apartment complex finally opened and Vienne has been taking advantage of it in this 80 degree weather!  Danielle bought V a floatation device, so that along with her water wings, means she can swim on her own (with her parents close supervision of course!)
