Summer Break : Week 1 !

We made it through the first full week of summer, hooray! Only five more to go. It was a pretty fast week as we work to keep busy with the heat! :)

First we met with friends to see a summer movie - this is Nate's good pal Lauren, who is sadly moving away from us again very soon :(

Nate just started a cooking class! This class they made smoothies and a meatball/bread skewer. I don't think Nate was excited about either, but was glad to see he tried them at least.

He was so excited to be done with school, but then we've ended up playing it almost every day!

We also had friends over to our house for a playdate and a food blind tasting game - they tasted veggies (broccoli, grape tomato, celery, persian cucumber) and some fruit (grape, kiwi, red mango, horned melon, nectarine). Again I was thrilled that Nate tried everything (I was hoping he would since friends were doing the same!) Out of it Nate likes kiwi and mango, and Aaron likes kiwi, mango, celery and "pickles" (as he calls the cucumbers) I think I need to do another one of these! :)

We made chocolate frosted/sprinkle covered donuts at Krispy Kreme! They were really generous - any donuts we wanted they basically just gave them to us, pretty close to free! Kids loved it.

Donuts, donuts everywhere

Big bucket o' chocolate frosting

Most sprinkles we've ever seen in one place!

We went to the library and checked out books - using Nate's very own (and new) card!

Nate started back up with swim lessons! He was looking forward to it. Once a week through August, we're hoping.

This past weekend was our 9th wedding anniversary! The kids enjoyed some time with their Nana and Pap Pap so we could enjoy quality time together. Dinner, a movie, drinks, pool time...it was grand!

Grandmother (Josh's mom) took the kids to the SeaLife Aquarium. They enjoyed it!

See, busy week :) Bring on Week 2 !
