Goodbye summer ... hello school!

What a fun summer we had! Here are some highlights:

making perler beads!!

going to Hawaiian Falls as a family. Especially the giant green half-pipe that we all rode on together! And also the lazy river... 

super hero / super villain gymanstics camp. We made our own costumes, 

along with matching Beanie Boo sidekicks.

Summer camps: we all did swim lessons. Also, Bria did a drama camp and Cali did a soccer camp

We also ... played with our Beanie boos, got together with friends, learned how to cook, watched shows, visited the Library and completed the reading program, and had a great staycation!!
