This summer has been different from any other summer. Mostly because I’ve been working, which has been a huge boost to my summer mental health. It has also helped force independence on my kids. This is also Nicky’s last summer as a “kid.” No pressure to make it meaningful, right?
Here are a few things that we’ve done this summer that I haven’t posted about:
1. Zoe did a youth theatre camp and presented Honk Jr. She was in the ensemble and got to be a chicken. Here is her headshot from the program:
2. Scotty took Nicky, Zoe, and Eva camping. Daisy and I stayed home because it was a bit too spontaneous for our taste (Scotty decided around 5:00 that he was going camping and left at 5:30).
3. We had a four-way tie playing Bohnanza at game night!
4. The kids have gone on lots of temple trips.
5. We got a new trampoline, but we haven’t gotten rid of the old, broken one yet, so we have a lot of trampolines in our back yard!
7. My mom took Zoe and Eva camping. Unfortunately that’s when Zoe got a sore throat, so I had to bring her home early. We went up to the camp in Perry for a day.
8. Scotty’s dad and step-mom hosted a rocket launch for the grandkids followed by swimming at the rec center.
9. We spent a day in Logan. We have Get Out Passes, so we went and used our passes to Zootah and a trampoline park. We also ate at Center Street Grill and went to Gossner’s for squeaky cheese, milk, and ice cream.
11. We went on a picnic in the mountains, and Nicky found a bunch of golf balls, which kept the younger kids busy for a while.
And finally…
12. We went to a dinner theatre/magic show where somehow, the magician got a quarter in my hand, and I’m still freaking out!
