The Craziness Continues

Seriously one of these days I am going to feel like I am ahead of the game.  I just don't know when that day will come.  We've had so much fun the past couple of days that the parents of the house walk around in a continual fog.  It doesn't help that I am not feeling well.















Father's Day we were able to spend the day with Papa and Nana and spoil the father's in the house.  We had a lovely breakfast and dinner and the kids gave Damon their homemade gifts.  It was a nice relaxing day.

My little sister and her kids came to stay with us for a few days.  Lily loved being a helper for Baby Sophie.  It was lot of fun having them here, but lots of work as well.

Art Corps exhibit.  Each of the kids showed off their art work for us at the Open House.  The kids really love getting creative with Art Corps

 Noah had an Invention Convention at school and he and his dad came up with a Lawn Protector.  It's supposed to keep the bunnies away so they don't ruin your yard.  Everyone seemed to be interested and wanted to know if they could take it home with them.

The kids wanted to have a campout in the backyard to celebrate National Campout Day.  We got volunteered to be the hosts so we made the most of it.  We had the kids set up the tents, cooked hamburgers and hot dogs, made S'mores treats and let them stay up a little later than normal.  It was fun for them, but exhausting for us and once again we earn the coolest parents award.  It took Damon and I all weekend to recover from staying up all night.  We are definitely old.

Lily is getting ready for her ballet recital which is in 2 weeks.  The girls look very cute in their princess dresses.

Noah had his last band concert at Jerabek.  It was nice to go and hear how much they have improved over the years.

We've also started swim lessons and Noah has scout camp all week.  Our wonderful friends, the Dominguez, stopped by this week too for a to short of visit.  They are great friends who we've known since before kids.  Noah and Jonah have been friends their entire lives and I love getting them together when ever we can.

I am very much looking forward to the end of school.
