Our first week was a bit rough. Everyone had to get use to the idea that no school didn't mean no work. We have never had a summer where there was no work so I don't know why this is such a hard transition every year, but it is, and this year was no exception.
The kids are still waking up by 6:00 every morning. Maybe this will end as the summer goes on but for this first week we were all up bright and early. I decided on a whim that we should all ride bikes to a park while it was so cool and beautiful. So we spent our mornings riding, and playing returning home around 9:30 to get on with chores and stuff. We can't do this all summer because of classes/camps which is a bummer, but I am glad we did it while we could.
We used those birthday groupons for FlowRider. The kids had a blast, but said it was hard.
Byron's friend invited him to participate in a Kids Adventure Race this weekend. It looked so fun, we wanted Byron to be apart of it, but it was also expensive. As mom's we asked that the boys both contribute some $ to the experience. So they sold Otter Pops at the last two baseball games and made their goal!
We got some Alicia and Parker time at a local Splash Pad.
My kids love following Parker around giving him fist bumps.
We met cousins at Lagoon!
Saturday evening was windy so Darin and I took the boys to the park to fly kites in the sunset.
All in all we are off to a good start!
