This Week's Summer Activities...

Saturday and Sunday we didn't choose an activity from our jar.

Monday (Clark):  Bowling.  We set up out bowling set in our bowling alley (hallway).  Kent, Kaomi, Felicity and Clark had fun bowling.  Katy hadn't finished her before breakfast chores and didn't get to join us.

Tuesday (Felicity):  Leapfrog/i-pod.  It was a beautiful day, so we all went outside before this activity.  I came back in with Clark and Quinn, when Clark was done and I played Legos with him until everyone was done playing outside.  Then, they began their screen time.

Wednesday:  We were supposed to work at church, but grumpy, slow children this morning made that not happen, so we didn't pick an activity either. 

Thursday:  It's the 4th of July.  We went to a parade,  made a quick stop at Walmart, and went swimming.   Then we had a family 4th of July party in the late afternoon and evening which included water play for the kids, conversation for the adults and fireworks to end the evening with a bang.

Friday:  We are on "vacation".  We went swimming, worked around the house and watched a movie.

Saturday:  We finally had a chance to get Jeff his Father's Day gift.  We all went to Adam's Furniture in Justin, Texas to look for a throne for Jeff.  It was time for him to get his own special chair.  He chose a rocker recliner with a brown microfiber fabric.  We also found an end table that we liked that was on clearance, which is a nice sized table to sit next to Jeff's new chair.

Next week is Vacation Bible School, so I don't know how many activities we will get to choose from our jar.  We start back to school on the 15th of July and there are still plenty of activities in our jar to continue having fun through the summer, even after we go back to school.
