bookworms

ever since my children were babies, we have read to them.
they have a deep love for books and i always make sure
we have plenty around for them to read.

kyle just opened a new library in town this year.
they allowed people in the town to purchase a personalized brick paver
if they wanted to. we decided to participate
thinking it would be fun for the kids!

we visited the new library for the first time this past weekend
and we found our paver :)


the kids also checked out some books and magazines and signed up for the 
summer reading program.

cari is reading about the beach which we will be visiting this coming weekend!
she loves animals so much :)
 cami started reading the series called 39 clues. 
right now i believe there are 15 or so books and
disney is working on a movie that will be coming out in a few years.
she seems to really like it so far. 
we are hoping that the library will carry more of them.
let me know if anyone has them and wants to lend them out.
maybe we can make a trade ;)


every year the kids like to stack up their books as they read them.
it helps to track them for school and summer reading programs as well as
showing them a cool visual of how much they read :)

cami has book chair in her room that is growing.

i'm sure my kids (or my kid's kids) will look back on this and think how 
funny it was to actually read paper and hard back books
since everything will be digital by then...
...or maybe not ;)

which do you prefer and which do your kids read?

  1. We went to the library a few weeks ago and Madeline signed up for a reading club. We'll have to bring back the books and get new ones soon. I was a little surprised though, their children's section seemed a bit sparse. Hopefully they'll get a bigger selection soon.

    How neat you guys donated and got a paver there!

    1. i thought the same thing about the selection, but i think it is so low because people are allowed to check out 50 books at a time.
