It was our last day of gorgeous cool 70 degree weather before summer starts in earnest so I took Alex to Lake Lawson for a walk and picnic.

By The River
Last night we played at the park by the river and took a picture by the water.
Barnyard Palooza Summer Camp
This week Alex had ‘farm camp’ and enjoyed doing different farm activities every day. Monday he planted seeds, watered the garden, and shucked corn. He got a corn on the cob that I cooked him for an afternoon snack. Tuesday he learned about baby chicks and chickens. Wednesday they learned about goats and had a story read to them by real farmers. Thursday they learned all about bee keeping and enjoyed some honey. After that they did some fishing and played farm. Friday they learned about cows, got to ‘milk’ a cow, and had watermelon!
Alex’s Art Camp
While Brooke is finishing out her last three weeks of school Alex is going to summer camp 9am to noon. This week was art camp. He had a lot of fun making several different types of art including his own tye-dye shirt. At the end of the week he had an art exhibit.
First Beach Day!
Today after Brooke got home from school we drove straight to the beach! It has been warm into the upper eighties and I decided to take them to the beach for the first time this season. We had a lot of fun playing in the sand, splashing a bit in the waves (that are still pretty cold), digging holes and filling them with water, splashing each other with buckets, and going on a walk on the beach.
