Checked out a new nature center. They have 100 acres and more than 2 miles of trails. We will be back in the fall for some fall colors, and this time with bug spray!
Turkey feather
August won a free ticket to the ball game after a reading initiative in the spring, so he and daddy and grandpa had a fun afternoon. (most fun: eating hotdogs and getting a new stuffed animal)
Meanwhile the girls and I had lunch at Culvers and home to watch Frozen.
This happened a few days ago, elbow dislocation. Thankfully it had already fixed itself before the doctor even came in.
I backed into a brick wall with Doug's jeep. I was thankful it wasn't another car!
The kids and I checked out another nature center where I grew up, I hadn't been there since elementary school. It was really nice.
They had this gorgeous door into the kidscape area
We picked all these veggies from my mom's garden while she was on vacation. And the kids demolished the entire thing in one evening.
Doug and I had a date night, we saw the Twisters movie (so good!) we had the whole theatre to ourselves.
And this was actually our only day at the beach this year (!) The kids had a blast in the sand.
This was the 3rd groundhog caught this summer. Altho not before utterly decimating my zinnias, climbing beans, a lot of bush bean plants, and possibly the melon leaves too.
And one more playground this morning
We've had a good summer overall. Lots of togetherness. Lots of squabbles. Getting excited for back-to-school, altho not the getting up early/rushed mornings. And still nervous about home-schooling 2 now, while balancing a soon-to-be-3'nager mini-tornado ball of energy. But we shall see how it goes!
