Another awesome pond day with friends!

Aldey LOVED jumping off this platform.

The big guys swam the pond with their friends 3 times I think.  It's hard to keep track.

In NH, you might as well snack BIG or go home.

What a BLAST!

A 90 degree day the end of June.  We'll take it.

First Beach Day!

We've had a week of high 70's weather.  Thursday was our first beach day!  We had a blast.  The water was still a bit cold - but it was nice to get in and cool down.

Tuesday we had our AWANA awards night.  Jeremiah has completed Cubbies and will be a Sparky next year.  Nathanael has finished Sparky's and will be a TnTer next year.  Adley received his Excellence award - his 2nd TnT book is complete. 

Havin' a blast!

It's Party Time!

I had a star war theme party.

I had 2 buddies over with their families - which makes for 11 kids in our house. :)

We had a blast!

Just a close up of my BB-8 cupcakes that I picked.

Today I'm 8!!

Happy Birthday to ME!  We had birthday donuts!  I had Taco Tuesday for dinner - and birthday ice cream after AWANA.  That's ice cream in a waffle cone bowl.  Fun Stuff!

Tomorow is my party - so time to rest up!
Love,

Birthday Weekend Plus!!!

Wow, what a super duper fun birthday weekend (PLUS).  Grandma & Grandpa came up Friday night for some birthday fun - and a sleep over.  On Saturday I got my birthday present - a sweet new bike with gears!!!  Then Dad and Grandpa went to work.

We knocked down this wall to the basement.  We got the tarps up to keep the dust OUT.  We helped with broom & shovels to get the debris out and into the wheel barrow.  It was fun.  Then in the afternoon Grandma took us to the movies to see ZooTopia.  It was so great.  When we got home the house was looking cool.  Then we took a great FAST bike ride in the neighborhood.

When they finished the steps looked like this.  It's GREAT.  Sunday morning we went to church.  Then Grandpie and Nana came over to party in the afternoon.  We grilled burgers and dogs for lunch.  Grampie brought dunkin donuts - so I had 8 candles in my one donut to blow out.  Then we did a bike ride again - and my speed was awesome.  What a super weekend!

What a FAB vacation week!

Monday we enjoyed watching the Marathon while we did some school.  Adley took a great electronics/programming class Tuesday - Friday morning.   He loved it and did a lot of cool stuff.  We spend so much time with friends.  And enjoyed the warm weather so much too.

Friday - We did a great Firefly class at the Library.  Check out bug glasses.

What a Sweet Week!

Now we're onto the Birthday Week!

This boy lost another tooth!

This loose tooth was quite an adventure.  It was hung by a thread.  Mom offered me 50 cents to pull it out today, and only 25 cents tomorrow.  But it's sooooo hard to pull it out.  Then some Swedish fish were offered, also for the brothers who were encouraging and helping out.  Nathanael let Adley pull it out - it's a team effort.  Swedish fish all around.  Good effort!
Love,
Toothless!
