Summer Wrap Up

Here's some things that we did this summer that I haven't already posted...

Nick hurt his back :(
Ends up he had a buldging disc & had to get a cortisone shot.
He's feeling much better now & hopefully won't injure himself again.

The kids attended Vacation Bible School at the Harvest Methodist Church.

We celebrated my Papa's 88th birthday!

We visited Nick at the grand opening on his new Missouri City store.

And then we went & watched a local production of the Little Mermaid at Inspiration Stage. And it was great!

(This was the 3rd or 4th show that we've seen there & Alex is always on the edge of his seat enthralled in the show. I keep telling him that he should try out to be in one but of course he says no. I'll keep planting that seed though.)

Alex grew his hair out all summer long

and then finally got a haircut right before school started!

What a difference!

And of course, we did a lot of this

And this!

And that's how we spent our summer... chilling like a villain!!

PEACE OUT YO!

Summer Break

School has started which means summer break is over & fall will be here before we know it! But before it gets here, I need to update you all on what we did this summer...

We played in the Splash Blast!

We went to the library a couple of times to play chess with one of Alex's friends from preK.

And to read & check out books.

We painted.

We went to the mall & rode the merry go round.

We went bowling with CiCi

and look who won!

(Yes, I'm such a bad bowler that my 8 year old beat me! Lol!)

We went to Bounce Zone

and to the Beaumont Art Museum

the Fire Museum

and the Energy Museum.

We went to a birthday party for Boone & Charlie & Emery

and to another party for Alex's friend Ryan.

We went to the pet store (my version of bringing Addy to the zoo when it's too hot outside!)

(Look at these lizards snuggling. Isn't it just the cutest thing ever!)

and to a Disney Pirate & Princess show at the park in Sugar Land. It was awesome & it was FREE!

Addy went to Brownie Rocket Day at Brazos Bend State Park where she turned a water bottle into a rocket. 

And then took it outside & launched it! It was a super cool event!

We went to Vacation Bible School at the Harvest United Methodist Church in Sienna. While the kids participated in the bible school, I volunteered in the 2 year old class!

Alex doesn't like to try new things & so he was nervous about going to VBS. 

It took me 20 minutes to get him out of the car on the first day.

But once he went in, he had a great time!

Addy, on the other hand, had no problems going in the first day.

She had such fun every day

and had this awesome girl as her teen helper all week!

We bought ice cream from the ice cream man!

We celebrated my 35th birthday!

And the best thing all summer was that we got to see this girl, Addy & Alex's older sister Maryse!

It was a fun & relaxing summer break which made me sad to see it to end!
