Lately I totally forgot to write this series! I haven’t shared since June, whoops! I was doing so well then totally forgot about it!
Loving the Library
My little book worm loves the library and we go at least once every 2 weeks! She has spent much of her free time this summer with her nose buried in a book. I can’t lie – I love it! Neither of my boys loved books as much as she does. This is a treat for me since I always secretly hoped I would have at least 1 bookworm!
Summer Gymnastics Training
Our son has had a pretty intense training schedule this summer. He absolutely loves it and it has been fun to see his progress. He is excited to begin competing again in November at his new level {6}. Here are a couple of video clips {click to see them on Instagram} of him in the gym this summer! It still blows my mind to watch him.
Beach, Pool, Yard, Lake & Camping Fun
We were thankful that our small above ground pool survived our move and has been a great way to beat the southern heat this summer!
We have also enjoyed my parents’ pool a lot {on the left below}! AND…I turned 40! The pics on the right are from my birthday dinner!
Some of our new friends live on a lake and we have spent time with them there and LOVED every minute!
We enjoyed a beach trip with my husband’s family and the kids enjoyed camping with their Pop Pop and Daddy!
My oldest son spent much of his summer away, mostly serving with church and enjoying his new church friends. He went on a beach getaway with his new youth group, mission trip to Chicago, and spent a week helping at a camp for children with special needs. He was gone a lot, we are happy to have him home!
I have enjoyed our summer break, and am also happy that fall is upon us. I love routine and I truly love homeschooling our kids. I have missed it!
