Last Week

The summer is flying by, and I’m having a hard time keeping up with all of the activities on this blog.  I need to highlight last week.

Jacob went to Aaron’s Camp last week.  He did rope courses, archery, canoeing, swimming, and just had a blast with his friends.  I missed him terribly and thought the week went by so slow without him.  He on the other hand thought the week flew by.  I was glad to see his backpack sitting by the washer knowing he was finally HOME!

Nathan traded his soccer ball in for a basketball last week.  He did the Pine Creek basketball camp and LOVED it.  I think it’s because he had so many of his friends do it with him.  Friends make everything fun!

Kaylee went to a fun party on Friday.  It was a red carpet event and all of the girls were assigned a different pop singer.  Kaylee was Pink.  She was so excited to get decked out and thanks to different friends we pulled a cute outfit together.  Let me just say she was thinking she was ALL that!

Stephen and I went on a couple of dates over the weekend.  When we dropped off Kaylee for her party we ended up staying on that side of town and going to Manitou Springs for mexican food and an evening wandering around the bands and galleries down there.  It was a beautiful evening and so fun to just relax with my Stever.  The next night we went on a fun date with another couple to a delicious little Italian restaurant.  The company and food made it another perfect evening.

We have also been busy with lemonade stands with friends.  Kaylee and Elizabeth did one for a couple of hours and made $32!  I thought it was cute that they had Battleship to play as they were waiting in between customers.

Lots of time spent at Lifetime.  It seems like we go there daily for swimming. 

Lots of bubbles.  I need to do a post on that.

And water balloons..

We went to a Spring Spree on Saturday.  I thought it was so interesting to read what the kids had wrote about it on “their blogs”.   Kaylee talked about the dog competition and then trying to train Shadow when they got home.  She wrote, “Shadow has the potential and speed, but just not the focus”.  :)  We went to Panda Express afterwards and one of the kids wrote about eating there and what they ate and how they wished I could make it.  They didn’t even mention one word about the Spring Spree.  Nathan mentioned all of the “sick” cars that were on display and about the BMX tricks we saw. 

It just made me smile at how different all of our memories are.  This blog of mine, I’m sure doesn’t capture all of the things that the kids will remember.  We are just all so different.

 

So according to MY memory, this was our last week.  :)
