Summer's Last Hurrah

The kids and I had our last summer fling yesterday. We headed to Boise early to pick up Austin's computer (that will go in the preschool room.) Then had an early lunch at Carl's Jr. We had plenty of time to play on their play place. Ruth was right in there with the rest of them, cute as can be. Austin was a tremendous big brother and lifted all the younger kids up every single time.

We did shop (but only at one store!) Emma Lynn and Spencer got to pick out some new school clothes. I found some cute dresses for Ruth also. Emma Lynn was showing her dad when he got home and Ruth took off running, found her dress, and came running back with hands outstretched to show Kurt her new clothes too. Adorable!

Then we headed to the theater to watch "Monsters Vs. Aliens" in 3D. We have waited forever to see this movie! So the kids were pretty excited about it. Emma Lynn and Spencer took off their glasses half way through and were a little scared in some spots. I wasn't overly impressed with the movie. Ruth fell asleep in my arms and I wanted to too.

We headed over to the water park that we found earlier this summer (Lakeview.) We only had about an hour there but it was perfect. All the kids crashed on the way home. Great ending to a great summer. Thanks for playing with me Austin, Emma Lynn, Spencer, and Ruth! Let's do it again sometime.

You're such a fun mom! I'm not quite ready to say goodbye to summer. It makes me sad that it won't be here for much longer. So way to have fun while you still can! And I love the picture of Marti and her cute kids below! So fun to see her. Tell her hello from me :)

So many great memories! And many more to come! Thanks so much for sharing and making it easy for us to stay connected. Too bad the movie was disappointing. Another fun family reunion is on the horizon. Such beautiful grandchildren and daughter.

This is Halloween Nite!
