Summer Fun Week 4

 

We are now into July!  Wow!  This is the full month of Summer -- June includes the tail end of school and our friends return to school in August.  We have Library Events, Day Camp, and Family visits this month!  

Monday -Today was a 100% free day because our friends are out of town until Tuesday.  Anytime I don't watch them we view it as a vacation day and don't do much :-)  

Tuesday - I always find that after 4th of July we tend to settle in a little and don't do quite as much.  I debated a few things for today but in the end, we just stayed home and did the typical "no electronics" time in the morning and afternoon. 

Wednesday - Josh and Nate went to Nana's to hang out with some new friends. 

Thursday - Library Phone Scavenger Hunt

The teen group does NOT want parents in their activity.  This is the closest I could get.  
The activity was a phone photo scavenger hunt (they don't use polaroid's anymore!).  I was able to get pictures of their pictures.  Yes, this is Nate acting as a statue. 
This is their group (I have no idea why this photo is sideways) with a guy with a mustache.  Their group consisted of all friends - Josh, Nate, Cooper and another friend from our co-op, Layla.  I think they had  a blast considering Nate said - "I wish they did that every week." 

Friday - Nate had TKD in the morning and then, as I shared on Saturday, we had a meet up with our Co-Op.  Usually Friday's are free but who can pass up ice cream! 




Yes, it was a bit quieter this week and, honestly, a little lazy for the kids but that's ok.  Most years the week after the 4th of July we tend to be pretty relaxed.  Growing up, I always loved my summers and the last thing I wanted was a list or required things to do so I try to balance it with the kids - a few things that get them off the electronics but lots of time to do nothing!
