Monday crafting... I found these cute marker paintings.  These use markers to fill each square with a color.  They follow a pattern and they turned out cute.

Tuesday adventure we headed to Dove Park with some friends.

Always a fun park and always better with friends.

This week we played hard with friends...  Altitude Trampoline Park

Then ice cream and playing with friends.

Swimming with friends. 

We are pretty lucky to have so many wonderful friends.

Family fun... sidewalk chalk contest.

Each kid got a square and had fun filling it in with whatever they wanted.  Then we let social media vote.  Alex's colorful tree won.

Cute chalky toes.

Friday morning the older kids, Alex, and I spent the morning helping at the local food bank.

Always good to serve the community.

Friday night we went to the Haslet firework festival.  When e were walking around trying to find a spot to set up our chairs Stanley spotted a baby bird.  He clearly was lost and not sure how to get back.  So we made it our mission to find ts nest or at least a nest.  After a while and people telling us they already looked we found a nest.  Not sure if its his, but better than hopping around the ground with a lot of foot traffic.

We sure hope mama bird finds him n=and it ends in a happy story. 

It was a fun festival and fun to see friends too.

Saturday morning we got up and ready to run or scooter.  Bringing scooters was a great idea.

We had a super fun time running.  Had a couple tears but everyone kept going and finished.  It happened to be a cloudy and cooler morning which was such a blessing.

Then we headed to the church to take our turn cleaning the building.

Busy but great Saturday.

Sunday before the 4th.  Looking patriotic and feeling blessed.
