Another summer week gone! Our week was typical, we had a sitter come two days, and then two days at the summer camp and then home with Dave on Friday. Actually, Dave was supposed to have jury duty on Friday, but apparently someone took a plea. The kids field trip was to the Red Cedar gymnastics and of course, Noomi now wants to take gymnastics. This of course after I dropped a ton of money outfitting both kids for soccer! As our next few weekends are booked and we’ll be out of town right before school, I also took them school shopping and they’ve picked out all their folders and pencils, and notebooks. Yea school!
This past weekend the kids had their last swim class. Both kids can swim freestyle and backstroke. Ajax was learning the butterfly and could float on his back. Noomi was swimming underwater and perfecting her handstands.
After class we did a little running around and then I took them over to their friend’s house in Webberville for a sleepover. This was Noomi’s first sleepover and she was so excited. Their friends have a pool and a hot tub, so they swam, ate pizza, watched a movie, walked into town for ice cream and stayed up way late talking.
While the kids were gone, Dave and I headed to St. Johns for the mint festival with my family. We had an excellent time as well.
I picked up two very tired kiddos on Sunday. They were of course swimming when I got there at 9 am, so I hung out for a bit while the kids played and then we headed home around 10. Our Sunday was pretty quiet. I did some shopping, the kids put away their laundry, and that was about it. Overall, pretty chill.
We also had my grandpa Gordy stop by on his motorcycle and we all got ice cream.
We also had National Night Out which is always so much fun in our town – bounce houses, face painting, a water hose from the fire department, and lots of food!
