After a long bike ride and no leopard frogs caught, our neighbors invited our kids to check their window wells. A toad and two frogs later has you guys yearning to go over and check it out every day...
On Monday we had our friends visit us...and they approved our new house! That's a huge compliment since they are the ones who own the house you guys beg to go and visit.
Oh, and they brought a painted turtle to release in our pond...they called him gramps. What do you know, we spotted a friend for him that day! Now hopefully we will have two turtles to spot.
On Tuesday we celebrated Don and Sandy's birthday after you got a quick frog hunt in with the neighbors. Then squeezed in a quick visit with Kathleen. And you managed to talk us into a family frog hunt back at our old stomping grounds. Yes, this was all in one day and you even had flag football practice that night!
Just little bull frogs at the softball field pond...I wonder if you will ask to bring your net to the next practice.
On Wednesday, we somehow managed to fill our day with your favorite things. I'm glad you reconnected with old neighbors while I took Julia to backpack day.
You both played while I got 45 minutes to myself to just clean. (No picture, bad mom) It was worth treating you guys to ice cream and lunch with your old friends.
While you played outside I cut grass and pack the van for the next adventure...to the ice rink.
Next stop was Jacob's backpack night followed by chicken ranch.
Thank goodness we already got your clothes out and lunch packed for tomorrow. I'm so tired...and neither of you were at bed time tonight. Why is that?
Cheers to summer 2016 in the books and looking forward to next summer already! (Sorta...after a couple hours off)
