Updates on Clifton -
He is obsessed with sports.  With his free time he makes sports books.  We had to explain that its 1 v 1 not be, haha.  Each page has a player versus player and who would win.  That kid could name players I don't even know.  He has now moved onto NBA 1v1 book.  It is cute to see his excitement towards sports.

Updates on McKay -
Loves to help clean.  She is such a great helper.  I hope this isn't a phase ;)

Updates on Stanley -
He has back tracked this week.  He had three accidents this week!  He has been completely potty trained for a while now.  I have heard kids do this when having a new baby coming or when it comes but my other two didn't do this.  Hopefully it was just a fluke and we are done with accidents.

Monday we started out the week with a fun hike.

Big tree trail.  The kids did great hiking it until Stanley got stung by a bee twice.  Poor kid!  Luckily I had just bought Incredibles 2 bandaids and that helped make everything better.

That night we had a BBQ with friends in the unexpected rain, but we still had fun playing.

Another fun play group Tuesday.

And then we had did cub scouts in the afternoon.

 Learning about boat safety!

Making and racing boats.  Terri is such an awesome leader.  We are lucky to have her and for her to help me out in my cub scouts calling.

Wednesday we enjoyed a magic show down by the library.  Then headed to get our free slurpee's.

Ya for 7/11 day!

We finished reading Peter Pan this week and to celebrate we made crafts and watched the movie.

This was the first time my kids have seen the movie and really enjoyed it.

Thursday we got to go to our friends Navy Retirement celebration.

We will miss these guys a lot but so happy for the new adventures that are to come.  Hopefully our paths will cross again.

Enjoying a hot summer night.

Love these crazies!

Friday we headed out to play frisbee golf and count that as our hike.

It was such a beautiful course.  Clifton and McKay were really into it.  Stanley enjoyed it for the first couple holes but the course was a little too hard for him.

So he kept entertained by fetching my frisbee like a dog.  Silly kid, but it was nice to not have to bend over :). We ended up skipping over half of the holes but still had fun and walked 2 1/2 miles doing it.

Alex has been working so hard on the yard the last few weeks.  I hate being useless but sure have appreciated him more watching him work so hard.

 Before... and this is when we bought it.  We had let it grow even more.

After.  Looks great!  Let's more sunshine in.

While Alex worked in the yard all weekend, we played.

Visited a preschool open house and joined in on their festivities.

Then we headed to the summer splash primary activity.

Fun afternoon with friends.

Then that night we went to our neighborhoods Bat walk/hike.

Learning lots about bats.

Then we all hiked out to spot some bats.  It was a much later night than I had expected and a longer walk than anticipated but we had a blast.

Sunday we were picking games to play and the kids begged to play Twister.  So I gave it a go ;)

38 weeks and I still got it, well kind of.  Now if it would have put me into labor!

Other fun from the week...

We got a couple cute dress up items at a garage sale and the kids were playing so well.  So I decided to make a little dress up area and pulled out old costumes.  They have been loving it and so have I!

We have been playing fun games on our daily walks/hikes.  Stanley wants to join in but doesn't seem to quite get it, but we love it!

He sure keeps us laughing.
