Saturday - We had a great day. We had a peaceful day at home before heading to my mom's for a fabulous dinner. After dinner we came back home and did yard work. Darryl I worked on cleaning out the "back corner" and then we had a huge fire to burn some stuff.
Nate cut up our Christmas tree so we could burn it.
This is the back section we are working on - I'm horrible at taking before photos but this already looks 100% better!
Josh was our fireman - he had the hose ready to go!
Sunday - It was another peaceful day. It ended with an great visit with my brother Ken, my sister-in-law, Lynnette and my niece Kate. They made a quick, unexpected trip home for a funeral and stayed the night at my moms so we got in a quick hour or so visit.
Monday - We had an unexpected "vacation day" as our little friends came in the morning but them left because the princess wasn't feeling great. I always treat those unexpected days as "bonus" days and the boys get the day off. We also got a new "toy".
This is an echo dot. It was on sale for $1.00 and I have been wanting something to play music in the kitchen for years. I've tried a radio - it's fuzzy; I hate streaming; and said I'd never get one of these things. BUT for that price, I got it. The kids love it. I keep reminding them that it is mine - to play my favorite radio station .
Tuesday - We finally started our summer plan today. The kids did not love the "school review" part but seemed to enjoy the theme. My mom came for dinner and we burned some more stuff!
The kids working on one of our Ocean themed worksheets
The boys got the sprinkler out and had fun in the water for a while in the afternoon.
We had lots of brush to burn - Nate was helping to get it all burning.
Nate was also our fireman tonight.
It's looking even better! We just have a little more to burn plus a couple of holes to fill in and it will be done.
Our bird nest - the eggs have hatched and the mom is sitting on the edge of the nest to feed them. We are waiting to get a photo of the babies when she isn't on the nest.
Wednesday: We did more individual and group time. We also got photos of our baby birds!
Thursday - I went grocery shopping and we did our normal activities (I even heard these words, "I really liked our group time today HA!). We then surprised the boys and headed to the Lakeshore for Pizza, Swimming, and a Sunset. It was a great night!
Friday - We had no extra friends here today so we enjoyed a quiet day. I did some organizing, Darryl set up our Roku (to test it out) and we just tried to stay cool!
It was really a good week.
