July

This post is making me very happy about our lives. 

• We pulled back out the water slide from last year's party and invited everyone we knew for three straight days.  After that our yard was a mud puddle so we put it away until next year. 
• We went to the new trampoline park and it is super fun and they even let you wear socks from their competitors!
• First time bowling for Rory and the Holleys.
• We went to Anderson to swim and do fireworks the proper way.
• Free Chick-fil-a.
• More Williamson time in Columbia with a zoo trip, slip and slide, and gaming. (I love that there is so much Julianna in this post!)
• A backyard cousins camp out. 
• A Star Wars party.
• Library summer reading medals.

Not pictured are... our new sea monkeys, a date to see Yesterday (which was adorable), illegal parking to see the fireworks show at DoKo Park, an outdoor movie at the fairgrounds where Silas stayed up until 11 and threw up all over his bed either from a virus or too much sugar.

 

 

 

June

For as amazing as summer is, I am terrible at it.  If my trend continues, by the end of summer I won't be getting up and around with enough time left to complete the bedtime routine in the evening.  Not pictured in this post are the trip to the dentist where Rory got a foam giraffe hat, Silas attending Bible School with Meemaw, Silas killing his new chore routine, much cabinet scrubbing, and that time I found myself at a fish fry with 22 of the democratic presidential hopefuls.

Berkleigh's B-day at the Y.

Retirement Party for Becky.

Last day of school/ Sports confusion.

 

Park picture cropped as to not show the unfortunately unpleasant kid we couldn't shake. I sound terrible writing that, but he was that ornery.

Silas started karate and loves it. Mr. Mike is pretty hard core and I keep waiting for him to catch Silas squirreling around and let him have it.  I need it to happen sooner than later so I can know if he will still want to book his karate birthday party there or if he will be too traumatized.

Happy birthday to this kiddo! We actually had a party this year and the weather was glorious! We went to Sesquicentennial State Park and played at the splash pad.  Rory mostly stood at the fence pointing at cars in the parking lot, which made me rethink this year's bug theme. Oh well. Then we had a scavenger hunt, caught pet bugs for our critter jars, and picnicked together with family and friends.
