Summer Starts

School

This was the last week of school and Shay had a different theme every day in her class, but I wasn't sure if the whole school was doing it so I let Claire choose if she wanted to dress up. There was Lemonade, camping, popcorn, and beach day, which I think are very unique and fun. Claire woke up saying her throat and head was hurting on Monday so she stayed home but felt better for Tuesday. After school she came home and her eyes kept producing gunk and she woke up on Wednesday with it dried on her eyes so she stayed home and missed the day they passed out and signed yearbooks. Luckily, she felt better and didn't have the goopy eyes so she could go on the last day and have some of her friend sign her book for her. Adrian liked having Claire home and is excited for her sisters to be home during summer. I'm glad Shay's teacher posts pictures of my crazy girl because it is fun to see! We also had a huge strawberry harvest they helped me collect on their first day of summer.

Weekend

We started off summer with a fun day going to the new rocket ship park that Adrian and I found in the morning to show it off to Claire and Shay. We also made a trip to the store to buy some gifts for the birthday parties we have coming up. There was on yesterday at a bowling alley and we have few more coming up. It was the first time the kids have bowled that I know of and Claire and Shay did pretty good remembering to take their turns between begging for money. There were arcade games they wanted to play or try to win prizes from and I paid them for letting Adrian take a turn for them and also for the chores they did that morning. Adrian liked pretending to do the games so much that he forgot all about bowling after he took his turn. As much as I dread having to micromanage him, he has a lot of fun and the parents at the party thought he was pretty entertaining.
