End of August

Wrapping up the end of summer. Isaac had a reading bingo he was filling out all summer and one of the squares was to read a book then watch its movie. I had heard that this movie was out and remembered the cute little kid book so I borrowed Harold and the Purple Crayon from a friend, read through it then we all went to see the movie. Of course it was an easy picture book but Isaac is a pretty big reader and most of his books are super long so thought it'd be fun to do this. 


Morning HUMID run with Oakley, his face says it all. 


Isaac started school on a Monday, but not until 1:00 so we hit the beach that morning for one last family beach trip of the summer. 


First day of 7th grade. 


Thomas got to meet his teacher and see his classroom.


Other happenings. Lots of rain and flooding. 


 

Trip to valley fair! 

 
 



Thomas started on a Wednesday. First day of 2nd grade at a new school!


Another run with Oakley, trying to wear him out. 


The girls didn't start until the following week, after Labor Day so we had a fun girls day on Thursday. Went to Candy Land and then had brunch out. 

Picking up Thomas from school, got there way early to sit in the parent pick up line and it was HOT in the van. 


Picking up Isaac that same day and watched as a huge storm rolled in. They actually held the kids late due to the storm warning but it didn't actually start raining until the warning was over and we were heading home.

June 15th-21st

Saturday morning while I went for a long bike ride, Kyle got out on his kayak and went fishing. 


Got back from my bike and did a quick run with Oakley at race pace which is faster than he's used too, lol wore him out!


Saturday morning Isaac had his finally tournament game where they took home first place JUST before the rain started to pour down. If they would have lost they would have played another game shortly after so it was great they won!





Saturday night we all went out to the movies. Loved Inside Out 2!


Sunday morning run... after ALL the rain so much flooding. 



Tuesday morning view on my way to swim. 


ANNNNNDDD Isaac is getting taller than me!


And pics of Oakley 



Tuesday, June 18th we went to Valley Fair after Isaac's football camp. It was a great day because it wasn't too hot/sunny, but it was muggy and on the verge or rain all day. There weren't many people there so lines were nice and short. 











Made for a tiring day, but Mary's softball and Emma's soccer ended up gettin cancelled due to threat of rain and a tornado watch. Isaac's baseball game still happened. It works out well because Kyle was traveling and getting everyone there would have been difficult. 


Race week, Thursday I rode to swim. 


Thursday evening Emma had a soccer game, Mary had a softball game then we finished with a late baseball game for Isaac. 


Check out my orchid!!! I saw a video about taking it out of it's pot and putting it in a jar of water and viola it works! First time I have ever had new blooms on an orchid plant.
