Dry fun

We still managed to have fun during the almost 3 weeks that Harvey had his cast!

These kids are into dressing up lately, which makes me smile so much.

Gigi was so nice to let us come over a lot. The big kids and I would swim while Harvey would take a nap. Sometimes he got to play a little bit too.

I thought I needed a day off from the gym because I was really sore and tired, but Millie asked if we could run to the park. She even gave me a pep talk about exercise and how it's so good for our bodies.  So off we went. She ran the whole way there! 

Story time at the library. The kids aren't big fans of story time but we were there and Millie saw some kids with the craft they'd be doing and she wanted one, so in we went.

We also like to walk through the college campus after going to the library sometimes to visit the ginormous fish.

Not a great picture, but see how big they are??

We were at a store and the kids saw a fun toy store we'd never been in, so we decided to wander it for a minute. Turned out they were having a free craft and let the kids paint rocks. 

Lots of coloring!

The big kids wanted to do a lemonade stand at some point this summer. We finally made it happen and they were so excited! One of my goals for the year was to help the kids do a service project of some kind, so we killed two birds with one stone here and decided some of the proceeds would go to the humanitarian aid fund through the church to help the flood victims in Japan.

We did it at the park by Gigi and Poppy's house since it seems to have more foot traffic than ours. Thankfully Heidi and James were there, and Gigi as well! It took a village to manage the kids wanting to run back and forth to the park and the stand, and keep Harvey out of trouble too. 

They had lots of sweet people stop and buy lemonade and cookies, half of whom were family! The only time I thought to take a picture during all the action was when Uncle AJ stopped by on his way home from work.

Millie came up with this all on her own while we were at the outlet mall one day. She's too funny and I totally used to do this with my siblings growing up!

Playing games with AJ and Brittany.

Harvey had this weird stomach bug one Saturday afternoon. It was only for a few hours but he definitely wasn't well. Thankfully it was short and he snuggled with me lots.

So thankful for these 3 hooligans!
