Celeste needed to work on a few things so she got a BIG Girl Charp (as she called it). She was able to get dressed by herself, go to the bathroom without help, walk on her own, sit on her own chair at dinner - things that 'normal' three year olds at our house usually do. It worked really well!
Madeline borrowed her big sisters bike and hit a rock. Unfortunately she fell right into a thorn bush, a very big and pokey one! She had scratches from head to toe!
Mike hung one of our old tires from a tree in the woods behind the house and the kids have a great time swinging on it.
Mike and I celebrated 13 years of marriage by going to the temple, out to dinner, and getting an ice cream treat!
We had to go to the beach atleast once so we decided to try a different beach - Buckroe - and we LOVED it. We are definitely going back next summer, hopefully more then once!
Calvin competed in the Cub Scout Cardboard Regatta - unfortunately his boat didn't float upright (again) but he had a great time swimming (again). We learn more each year about cardboard boats and hopefully can make something that floats and stays upright next year ;)
We have been working really hard on our new 'yard' (can you call clay, weeds, and wild forest a yard ?). We have been busy planting 18 decorative and fruit trees at the front of our property - we are hoping they can provide some shade, privacy, and fruit! We have made big plans to eventually trade our clay and weeds in for some grass. We'll see how that goes in the fall.
