What We've Been Up To...

First, the big news! We're ballerinas. Triple the tutus at our house!
We're all signed up for our first ballet class.
We went and picked out leotards and ballerina shoes.
We've all been practicing our moves.
We even got to try a practice class. We loved every minute.
Maryn even has a special "stance" she calls "the ballerina."
She puts her right toe on her left knee, and her arms in the air.
We'll try and snap a picture of it. Pretty adorable.

The hard part about being a ballerina is that you don't get to wear your beautiful ballerina dress all the time. Sometimes you have to wear real clothes. Bummer!
Every day we ask if we can wear our special dance dresses.
"Only on dance day," mommy says!

This weekend we went to the cabin with TONS of our friends.
There is a no-wake zone on Sugar Lake, but we made the best of it!


In a couple of weeks, we start school again!
Our whole schedule is going to change. We'll be busy little ladies with dance class, church school and preschool! So fun!
Love,
MBL

Maryn

Hi!
Time for a Maryn update.
We had a really fun time at Sugar Lake.
But, when we came back, I had to go to the hospital.
Mom and dad said when I got there I would get to put on special jammies and slippers. Then, I would do my breathing treatment, and fall asleep. When I woke up, and got ready to go home, I could eat ANYTHING I wanted. ( I couldn't eat before my breathing medicine...and I was HUNGRY!!)
I told them I would want a burger, chicken nuggets, chocolate ice cream and freezies.
I had the best intentions...and a hungry tummy.
I look really cute in my jammies, huh?
I picked bubble gum flavor for my medicine.

As much as I wanted to eat everything I could....this is what I felt like when I woke up.


I had a freezie...but that was about all.
Today, I am still not feeling so great.
My throat hurts. (I had my aednoids out and tubes put in)
I think mom and dad are still on the hook for a burger, chicken and chocolate ice cream.
Don't you?

Hope to feel better soon!
xoxo,
Maryn

A Week at Sugar

Hello from the Jonswold Family!
We just got back from a whole week at Sugar Lake.
Boy, was it fun!
We were like fish! We lived in the water!


Our auntie Lauren and uncle Nick and auntie Jenny even came with us!


Sometimes we took naps.


We fished...

and went round and round on the tire swing...


and tubed!
Mom was a little nervous. She told us to be careful!

Brynnie was so brave, she went all by herself!
Go Brynn!!



Here is Maryn deep sea swimming!


Smores galore! Yum!










We had a great time!
Love, MBL
