The end of summer

The last week and a half we have been trying to do some fun things and to spend as much time cuddling on the couch as possible before Chasen is in school all day!
on wed we met up with the campbell boy's and went to the  fossil gorge at the dam and played and had a picnic. I was to busy hiking and pulling both of my boys and their shoes out of the mud to get pictures!

Thursday me and the boys went to the Natural history museum and saw lots of animals and a stuffed sloth!

after the museum we walked around and went hunting for Herky, there are 80 or so of them around town

 

 

 

 

 

then we had forzen yogurt before heading home

I dont remember what we did friday... ean worked late and came home with a pontoon boat!!

Saturday we ran a 5k in tipton and went to the parade in swisher with our friends!

Sunday we woke up early and had the pontoon out on the lake by 8:30 we didnt want anyone else there as we tried to figure out how to back it down in and have me pull the truck up to the parking lot all with the boys! we spent the rest of the morning driving around

we got out and explored some rocks

ate lunch and took a nap

then the kukuzkes called and we picked them up and boated the rest of the afternoon!

Monday we were exhausted and possibly had a little sun poisoning from being out all day sunday
so we did this all day! and drank lots of water!

mon, tue and wed night chasen had vacation bible school!

He was really nervous about it, but when i picked him up he was so excited to go back and was full of stories!!

on wed i took dash to the park while chasen was at bible school and he fell off the swing and hurt his face!

but wanted to get right back in the swing after he cried for a bit

thursday i took the boys to story time (something dash and i will start doing every week)

he was quite unlike last spring when we tried to go

but he couldnt sit...he rubbed chasens hair most of the time :) 

also on thursday chasen said Mom we never dyed my hair this summer

so i found a packet of Kool Aid and dyed it blue! It didnt last to long but he liked it!

on friday we had breakfast at the skillet cafe 

then swam with friends at the pool, dashtyn loved it and wasn't afraid of the water at all!!

then friday evening we left for nebraska (more on that later)

monday and tuesday we just hung out at home playing, snuggling and today we swam.
TOMORROW I will officially have a kindergartner :( :(
So happy for him though!! and so proud!
