Cornwall Life: What's new?

I have been kind of busy lately and haven't done a real update blog in a while... so here goes!

The girls have had a busy summer so far. They have been to 2 different church camps. We have spent a large amount of time at the gym & it's pool. We have been to the beach a few times. And we are only 1/2 way through the summer!

I made my first dress! It is a pillowcase dress (just the style... some are made from pillowcases). I made this one for fall, but it was cute so Hana wore it on Sunday. I have more material and plan to make another one. I also have some Christmas material for 3 Christmas dresses (I didn't know how long it would take me to make the dresses, so I wanted to be sure they would have a chance to wear them!)
Jack and I had our TEN year anniversary!! I can't believe we have been married for 10 years! In some ways it has gone by really fast, in other ways it seems like forever. We went out to dinner with some friends. And we have a trip planned for a couple of days in Charleston in August.
I have had strep throat twice in 3 weeks. Hana and Brooke had it, and we have found out that they may be carriers, since they didn't really have any symptoms. Fun fun :(
I have not heard anything about teaching at the preschool for the fall. Sad. But I guess it just isn't the right time. I am trying to work more on my photography businesses. (I have some deals running now! Check out the blog if you are interested!!). I LOVE doing it, I just haven't had much time to focus on it lately.
I am still leading a Moms group on Tuesdays. It is going well! I really enjoy doing it.
Madeline is a tiny, crazy, adorable almost 2 year old. She talks up a storm! (in fact at church they suggested that we move her up to the 2 year old room because she was so far ahead of the other one year olds. We did, she did fine, she is just so tiny!!) But she can say anything. And she puts about 4-5 words in sentences regularly.
We are working on Brooke's allergies. We got her a new mattress and a mattress cover. I am trying to wash her sheets regularly. I will also be steam cleaning the carpets. She says that she isn't as itchy now. Which is great! We got some stronger cream for her spots and she looks SO much better!
Hana will be in first grade soon! So hard to believe! She keeps telling me that she misses school and her friends. I am not quite sure she understands that when she goes back she will have a different class and teacher. I am praying she has another great year and a great teacher!
