Summer of Fun Weekend

 Friday wasn't really that fun because we were still dealing with an ear infection of Abigail's, but I thought she did a pretty good job writing her name that day!
 Also, we went to Walgreens to pick up a different medication for her and I needed some things at the Dollar Store across the street, so I told the kids their Summer of Fun activity would be picking an item from the Dollar Store. 
 

 I took a lot of pictures because Abigail's item kept changing
 She settled on the Elsa and Anna Word Search


 

 

 
Saturday was really fun!  We went to Dalton's 5th Birthday party.

 
It was the best thing ever!  The kids constructed and decorated bird feeders! And the Party Gifts were bags of bird seed!  The feeders are hanging at our house now.  The kids had so much fun and are so proud of their houses!

 



 
 

 And the Coles have a huge dinosaur that moves and makes noise!

 

 
 Saturday night the Walkers came for dinner and the kids had so much fun playing with Aiden!
 
 

On Sunday after church we had a SS Lunch with the class we are actually in, not the one we teach.  We don't get to do enough with that group since we've been teaching! 

 Today we went to a Cookie Decorating at the library.  It was free and the kids had so much fun!  They also got a book read to them!
 

 




 
 Tomorrow is a swim day at Dee and Papa's!

Summer of Fun, Days 20 and 21

 
We had our Harkins Summer movie Wednesday.  This week is Rio 2. 

 
Afterwards we went across the street to Central Market to play for a few minutes



 
(I did not dress Abigail in a long-sleeved black dress, in case you weren't sure.)
 After naps we had to go to Walgreens, so we went across the street and used a Sonic gift card we had.  We sat outside on the patio which we have never done.  The kids were very excited.
 On Thursday we met the Huffmans for lunch at CFA.  They are in town for VBS and we love them so much!
 We also went to the Grapevine Library to get our first prizes from that reading club.


That night we had some friends over for a dinner that Abigail helped make, 

 
 But it turned out okay!
 And we had a great time with our friends!

Summer of Fun, Days 18 and 19

On Monday we had three doctor's appointments which made for a long day.

 
So our Summer of Fun treat was dinner and play time at CFA!
 

 

 


 
The kids had a really good time and when Aaron dropped his ice cream one of the worked got him a brand new one for free!
 


 
On Tuesday we went swimming at Dee and Papa's!
 


 
Then we had sandbox time.  Yes, the kids have blue butterfly stamps on their foreheads. 
 

 


 

 

 


 

 


 
It was a really great visit! 

 
After long naps we went to the library to pick up more prizes.  Abigail got her first - this pink tiger stamp that she has stamped everywhere.

 

 
I had to run into the post office to get stamps and the kids played with the boxes

 

 We walked next door to Pure for a smoothie

We enjoyed it outside 
 Then we walked to the Owl's Nest where Aaron made a list of things he'd like people to keep in mind if they were inclined to buy him something.

 
Abigail had a big time playing

 

 
She dressed herself

 
 

Summer of Fun Days 16 and 17

 
On Saturday we travelled home from Florida.  Our flights were different from my family's so we left early together.

 
At the airport there was a fantastic Disney store.  Our kids had not spent their Disney money from their grandparents, so they went shopping. 
 

 
It was really fun.  Abigail got a Disney Princess hat complete with Minnie ears and a veil.  She also got a set of 24 crayons in the shape of Disney princesses.

 
Aaron got Disney buses that he has been wearing out and some Lion King figures.

 
 Saturday we got home in time for some naps and then Aaron and I went grocery shopping and he got Jory and Cookie Cake that said Happy Father's Day.  Everyone was so excited to share that! We also went to the library and got Aaron some new books and he got another reward for the reading club.

On Sunday we went to Father's Day Brunch after church with the Elliotts
 



 

 
 



 

 
We ended up having a really sweet day with our little family!
