I took the kiddos to beach again today because it is supposed to rain for a week straight and I wanted to make sure they got some more beach time before that happened. We made sand ice cream and dough then all swam in the ocean together before they jumped ‘Cowabundga!’ into the waves while I watched and took pictures. We washed up and then stopped to look at some flowers and the lotus garden before meeting AJ after his workday to pick blueberries. It was a long but fun day!
AJ and Brooke planted some sunflowers around our yard. This was the first one to grow flowers. Brooke was so excited she made a sunflower for inside! So cute!
Today I took Brooke and Alex to the beach for the morning. We had fun building in the sand, running the beach, and of course jumping in the waves. After a few hours I got them cleaned up and told them we would go to pizza for lunch because I didn’t pack any lunch. They were very excited to find out that we surprised them with having AJ meet us at the pizza place after his morning meetings. They were very excited to see him!
After a playdate at the park with one of Alex’s friends I took the kids to the dismal swap with our bikes to enjoy a bike ride away from home. It was nice to find a patch of shade on a very hot morning and we had a lot of fun riding on a pedestrian/bike only road.
AJ built this impressive fort out of our couch three days ago and we have been playing in ever since. Today it needed to be taken down and the kiddos had as much fun destroying the fort as they have had playing in it. Yea summer!!
