Summer Happenings

Between our trips and travels, we've been filling our days with all things summer!

Vacation Bible School was definitely a highlight of Jacob's summer! Snack, specifically the lemonade, and the music were his favorite parts. The church gave all the kids a CD of the VBS songs, which is all we listen to now. Jacob also loves to make us play VBS/church at home. Its really funny and kind of reminds me of making my family play school with me when I was a little girl!

Lydia and I enjoyed time together while Jacob was at VBS. It gave me a little glimpse of what it will be like this fall when he starts preschool again.

 

Honestly, I'm really looking forward to school starting back next month. Jacob and Lydia love each other, but they're very much oil & vinegar. Being together all day, every day is a little much for all parties involved. I'm hoping the break school will give us will also reduce the amount of screaming and crying I have to listen to on a daily basis.

Most weeks we head to the library on Wednesday for story time with Mr. Zach. We've also been participating in the summer reading program.

We're loving our summer garden! Along with our flowers, we're finally getting zucchinis, cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes! 

Sometimes Jacob joins me for a run in the evenings. He can pretty much run (very slowly) the mile loop I do. I think we're going to find a fun run to participate in this fall. We might have a future cross-country star on our hands! ;)
