Busy Summer

I love summer! I love the sleeping in, days in nightgowns, simple meals and long hours of daylight.  However, for the past two weeks we have been living it up!  Go, go, go!

I'm happy now to say we had a ton of fun, but have a very minimal schedule this week.  So, I'm updating my blog and catching my breath before August arrives.

William enjoyed two birthday parties, we went to the Eaton County Fair,  took a trip down the river in a canoe, spied all the animals at the zoo, enjoyed a murder mystery night with some super fun people, and went to a Lugnuts game!

This is how life looks in between. #hastags

One day all of my children decided that the 'no internet connection' game on chrome was more fun than the internet, so they all pulled out their wireless cards. #weirdos


Grace loves dressing up like Masha #mashaandthebear


Shopping online, at home while my children play and pulling up to retrieve all the things we need is the best thing in the world.  #clicklistforthewin


On they way to the library we found a #dimondalerocks rock and saw more construction, this time a road roller! #bonusfun



Catching lightning bugs in the back yard #stereotypicalsummer


The three little ones had to go in for a blood draw. #nofun



Emily had picked out a balloon from the dollar tree earlier in the week, so everyone else wanted one too.  As their treat, following our trip to the lab, everyone got a balloon.  A sweet couple, a few customers in front of us bought them for the kids.  #sosweet


I'm not sure what Alice was doing here. #flamingo


How they watched Coco for the first time #notyetasingalong


They opened their first box and found all sorts of goodies, including an ice cream kit. #favoriteitem





We marked another summer bucket list item off too #icecreamforbreakfast


I took almost two days to migrate my entire library from my old computer to my new one #onlytookayeartostart


And upstairs, I have fabric cut for my next two projects, which I'm hoping to finish this week! #bloggingfirst


Right before my mom left, we took a trip to Sam's, where we had lunch.  While I shopped, they saw a movie #HotelTransylvannia3



While Alice was at her summer camp, we also celebrated Cow Appreciation Day. #chickfila


Met up with some of my favorite ladies and their littles for a playdate at the park. #goodtimes


At one point, William managed to pull the horseshoe pole out of the ground.  It is a really long pole.  I still have healing blisters from banging it back into place. #wiwium



 

 Spent time reading every morning #20minutes


Wore pants around like a hat #sillygrace


Celebrated with Avia, the day before her birthday #germanchocolatecake


And met up with one of Emily's bffs for a playdate at the school playground. Ended up with some entertainment #portapottymaintence


I'm sad to be quickly approaching the end of summer, but we still have a few fun things planned before school is back in session.

later days
