Fun with Friends

Violet is signed up for Kidz Love Soccer this fall, and she had her first class on Thursday afternoon. It was fun watching her play a sport again - it had been a while. Plus, it's always good to catch up with the guys who run Kidz Love Soccer.

Cora's friend Cooper came out to play, since he lives nearby, and he let Cora and Violet play on his electric scooter. Yes, I'm sure Cora wants one of these now! She had so much fun zooming around.

On Friday, the kids all went to Sophia's house for a big group playdate. We gave Trent a gift to help distract him from his arms - Cora made him a clay elephant, because elephants are his favorite.

We also gave him a trio of Calvin and Hobbes books, after Cora introduced him to our favorite boy-and-tiger over the summer. He was really pleased and appreciative.

The playdate featured a marshmallow-eating/marshmallow-face-stuffing contest.

It was quite amusing to watch.

The kids also played hide-and-seek, freeze tag and had a water balloon fight.

Violet was so happy to be invited! She even thanked Sophia a few days earlier after getting her invitation.
