On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I post a picture and just a few words.
We’ve been swimming a lot (four out of the last five days, actually!), but much reading has been done as well.
Thank goodness for the library!

We had national school sports week over in the UK last week, so had a really physical week! But we are also participating into a reading challenge - linked to the World Cup. So lot's of reading going on here also. Ready for our school hols to kick in. Just 2 weeks to go! Now we just need some sun ;)

This is such a cute picture! I love taking pictures of our girls too when they're reading or doing something productive.

We went to the library every week in the summer when I was a kid. I used to just love curling up in the cool house to read. Your pic brings back very fond memories.

I vividly remember curling up at the end of the couch and reading the Nancy Drew series. I couldn't wait to go to the library to get the next book in the series!

Kristin This is totally off topic, but I'm in need of a new couch and am interested in giving leather a go around. Can you tell me some details on your leather furniture - brand, cost, where purchased?

Sure! Here's a post I wrote about our leather furniture: https://www.thefrugalgirl.com/2009/02/something-we-saved-for/
Sadly, Ikea no longer makes the Ektorp line in leather, but they do have some very similar leather sofas now. We bought one of their newer designs for our office, and we're very pleased with it so far.
