And here we go... the last two weeks from my phone's point of view...
The first week of summer, Radley got to go to golf camp. He was the only kid that showed up with his own set of clubs. He basically means business.
You know what's even more exciting than golf camp?
Helping your mom slice fruit. With a REAL knife.
This was maybe his most favorite thing he's done all summer to date.
Seriously.
We got a special treat with a visit from Miss Shanon! She is simply the best and we all miss her dearly. She's the so much fun, loves the kids, and will stick around and chat it up with us for hours on end. Go ahead and move back!
I was happy to hear/see in the comments that so many of you also wear a robe around the house. I HATE to be hot indoors, but I am basically always freezing. My solution is to just wear a robe. And I love it.
This kid has so much fun in the water and I loved watching him at swim lessons!
These two look sooo cute next to the water! ;) Ha! They did not enjoy lessons as much as big brother, but that was kind of part of my plan. I wanted to get them used to the water early in the summer and be comfortable around adults other than me and Ryan, too. I think it sort of worked!
He fell asleep in his pirate ship. This kid loves to nap. And I love that he loves to nap, too!
Some nights you just need to share a pint. (Of ice cream).
The birthday celebrating started a day early for Emmy with all her friends at school! Ice cream sandwiches for everyone!
After our last night of swim lessons we were pulling onto our street when I noticed a turtle trying to climb up a curb. I did the only humane thing you can do, pulled the car over and hopped out to save him. As soon as I got him in the car "ninja rap" started to play and we realized we had just saved a TMNT. We set him free on hole 13 and let me just say when he finally decided to get in the water, he set off FAST!
The birthday celebrations then continued by opening a package from Miss Tori and lots of packages from Gigi and Pops!
And then it was PARTY day which fell on her actual birthday which is just so much fun. She had a great time celebrating with all of her friends and splashing around in the pool!
The second week of summer brought tennis camp and Backyard Bible Camp sponsored by one of our churches. It was so much fun to walk down the street and get to our neighbors in such a fun way. The kids had a blast all week and the counselors did a great job teaching them all about why Jesus loves us so much.
Yeah...I'd say he had a good time.
;)
And this girl. Y'all. She kills me. She is so funny. I literally never know what she is going to do and just enjoy her so so so much.
A little for you... a little for me. That is Emmy's butter philosophy.
Now if we could only work on her teeth brushing philosophy.
Me: Emmy did you brush your teeth?
Emmy: Yes.
eight hours later...
We do lots of pool nights with the HMMs in the summer, it's one of my favorite things. And these two just love spending time together. Besties for sure.
Take care of your future patrons!
We kicked off Father's Day by heading to one of my favorite childhood places... Kiddieland! We had the best night hanging out and having fun!
And this guy. What a reminder he is to me to stop and just have some fun.
She asked me if she could wear this dress and heels to Target.
I said yes.
And I'm so glad I did.
So, I am on a summer mission of cleaning out. Not just organizing, but actually getting rid of things we no longer use or need. But then I came across these... and well, I'm not getting rid of them. Crazy? Probably. But I don't care!
I kind of had the best day ever this week... a day... ALL day... in bed. Catching up on writing this blog, reading blogs and watching TV. Heaven.On.Earth.
And that's us in an instant!
