Week in Review

We made a family trip Saturday to Hurricane Harbor, because we had tickets from Stacey's work party a few months ago that were expiring.

We took it easy, spending much of our day by the wave pool. At one point, the cold water caused the girls to seek the warmth of the sun. It's not every day you see kids sitting out with a book at an amusement park!

Colleen, Lucas and Liana came with us, so it was nice to catch up with them.












The relaxing continued back at home.

Violet enjoyed the Captain Underpants movie a lot, and it sparked her interest in creating her own comic books again. Both girls have enjoyed this activity over the years.

On Wednesday, I had my friend Kelly's boys over for the midday hours while she worked. Noah and Ethan are normally cared for by one of their grandmothers, but both are out of state for a couple of weeks. 

We had fun together, and I was reminded what a lot of effort goes into having toddlers and preschoolers around, boys especially!

On Wednesday evening, Cora's Pioneer Club group worked on a camping badge. Cora enjoyed making S'mores - yum!

This week, Violet made sure she had a turn with the tree-climbing after her soccer class. Here's her buddy Camryn, who's taking the class with her.

Cora attended her friend Andre's birthday party on Saturday morning, at the Santa Clarita Skate Park.

She was a little nervous going in, because she had never been there before, but she had a fantastic time and can't wait to return. She used her scooter, and now wants to get a better trick-style scooter like the other kids used.
