We started the summer celebrating my 38th birthday. Between taking Lily to a swim party, taking Parker to baseball practice, and packing so that we could leave for Florida the next morning, we didn't have much time to celebrate, but Cory and the kids tried their best to make me feel special! They surprised me with a massage and a new beach bag full of my favorite things like Skittles, sour cream and onion potato chips and Dr. Pepper!
Lily's friend Dylann invited several friends over for a beginning of summer swim party. Lily had a great time with her friends from preschool!
We were able to squeeze in a dentist appointment for the girls somewhere in our busy schedule. It is so nice that they love going to the dentist and can make it through their appointments without any tears!
Lily got her first bee sting on the 4th of July. It got her right on the upper lip- ouch! It swelled up really big but was better by the next morning. It was hard for her to eat or drink for a good 24 hours and her Sunday School teachers even mentioned how long it took her to eat her snack! They are used to her finishing quickly and asking for seconds! I was proud of her for being so brave throughout the whole ordeal!
Cory and I were able to get away for a date night at the Rangers game. We had tickets in the Capital One Club and even though the Rangers lost, we had a good time and enjoyed lots of great food!
Eden got to help her friend Sara celebrate her 7th birthday with a swimming party at Sara's house. The past two years, Eden has sat in my lap and cried because she didn't want to swim with her friends. This year, she jumped right in and swam until the very end of the party. Her favorite part was jumping off the diving board! I am so very proud of how far she has come in social situations this year!
The girls begged to have a friend over for a play date so I finally let them have Trinity and Grace over while Parker was at Pine Cove. The all four had fun playing together all afternoon.
Uncle Steven came for a visit in July and the kids had a great time spending a couple of days with him. He played Mario Kart 8 with all three of them and threw the baseball with Parker. Hopefully it won't be long before he gets to come back and visit again!
June and July flew by and it's hard to believe August is already here! It won't be long before we will be buying school supplies and getting ready for school to start again!
