Sleepover
As a rule, we steer clear of sleepovers. The kids really wish we had them, so we did come up with an idea that worked for us. Brittany stayed over with her kiddos! What a fun family willing to have a group sleepover. :) The kiddos had a great time getting all those hours of playtime together.

Polynesian Dance Camp
Fitting in three camps this summer has made it a bit crazy, but all three we felt were pretty important for Lorelei. This year they are calling Hula Polynesian Dance (her teacher has her reasons...something about the different methods of dancing and they aren't all hula) and Lorelei is technically in "Junior Company Polynesian Dance" which sounds fancy but really just means she will be at the class for 1 hr rather than 30 minutes and that she will have more performances throughout the year. (Their goal is seven.) She is excited about having more time but is a bit nervous as this group is now 10+ and she has lots of new older girls she does not know. Overall she can't wait to perform more though and we are looking forward to her getting more time with this. All that being said, she had to go to this four day camp over the summer to be able to be in Junior Company Polynesian. (Got NO pictures of her for this.)
This camp was 1 1/2 hours each day, so Makin and I hung out playing games at the nearby Starbucks. (With the exception of the day we had car trouble, then we just stayed at the building and played games...) So thankful this guy still enjoys his Mom time!
Swim Time and Game time
Two simple ways we have kept busy this summer...swim time and game time. This also wrapped up a last crazy couple weeks of summer before our Nebraska trip which involved a lot of preparing for the upcoming school year and an unplanned new-car purchase...so it did put a bit of a kink in some of our summer fun. We still fit in what fun we could of course. :)

| The floats have brought plenty of fun and plenty of arguments to pool time. |

| The soon-to-be 5th graders had a blast playing at Mallory's house for our summer class get-together. |

These two played hours of Monopoly spanning a couple of days.
They get that ability from their dad for sure. ;) |
