Back to the Pool

Summer is back!  Well... just for a day, but seriously, it got back up to 90 already!  That's pretty nuts.  When the girls heard it was warm they were super excited to go back over to the pool, though it should be noted that the air warms faster than a pool full of water...  The water was still very cold.  They had fun playing in the water, and they got out some reusable water balloons they got for Christmas and gave those a try.  Looks pretty cool, but, maybe just a little cold still.


Brooke and Grayson continue to do homeschool together.  On fine motor skills day they build blocks together, and Brooke helped Grayson make this giraffe.  Brooke is head of the class!


There's a homeschool day at the library that Monica's started taking everyone to.  Their first day was about 3d printers, which was pretty fun for Brooke.  This past week they went outside for some fun activities, and Grayson just couldn't help but blow a dandelion... errrr... eat a dandelion?


Meanwhile Brooke was making some giant bubbles.  I don't know what the topic for the day was, but something about bubbles, or surface tension, or small game trapping.  Something like that.


Joy spent the day with us as well!  Her parents took her brother to the temple while everyone else was at school.  She had a great day hanging out with Grayson and they did all sorts of fun things together, like going to the park, or riding in the wagon.


Looks like Winry and Grayson had stuffed animal school again and it was group picture day to boot!  They seem to enjoy this particular activity.


Saturday was a whirlwind of a day.  I ran out to do several errands in the morning, including picking up some wood so that I could make shelves for the garage.  I finished them just in time to get ready and head to a stake leadership meeting, and when I got home they were full of food.


We got to church early for stake conference to try to make sure we got a soft seat.  We were 40 minutes early and still just barely got a spot.  Since we were there so early we felt it best not to have Grayson sit while waiting for church to start, so I walked around the church with him.  I took him outside to show him that we have a firepit, and he had a lot of fun throwing leaves in and walking around the area.


That afternoon I made a big discovery.  I found Grayson's special blanket.  It had been missing for a few DAYS!!  Glad he's a champion and still went to bed well without it, but it was great to see it again.  Where did I finally find it?  It somehow ended up behind my computer in the office...


Well, that's all the news I've got.  Till next week.
