Our annual summer Activity Days for Girls movie watching party turned into a drive in movie to watch The Little Rascals this year. That's what happens when you buy new basement furniture and take out the old sofa and ottomans before the new items arrive. It turned out great. I loved Michelle's school bus and Natalie's vintage convertible they made beforehand so we could see what was most effective and then my girls helped the other girls make their cars at the party. Three hours can fly by when you're having fun! Another day we had a wonderful time at the ward Primary picnic playing at the park, eating popsicles, and chatting.
Danny, Michelle, Natalie and I had a great time at our favorite outdoor pool with C. family and H. family from our ward and even a baseball friend, Aiden, who happened to arrive at the same time we did. (Kate was busy with volleyball day camp at CU.) It was great to see Natalie have a great time in the water and feel more confident in the water by having friends around.
These teammates had a great time watching the Boulder Collegians play baseball one Friday night. In fact, Danny convinced Hubby and Natalie to come the next night while Michelle and I went to watch M.P. perform in the musical version of Oliver. Once again, great times were had!
I found this gem on Instagram and recognized my favorite son. He is signed up for a one month membership (something to do before school starts) at an athletic training facility. This was from his first training session. He was excited to try it out and work with the hitting coach in preparation for fall baseball. Michelle, on the other hand, was not. The free trial class was enough for her. She much prefers track practice for getting all worn out. The day Danny was getting his evaluation done, Hubby and Natalie joined Michelle at her track meet and Kate finished up her volleyball camp. That Freddy's ice cream made the Inta Juice I bought my two oldest and I look... healthy. lol.
I just had to include this picture of M flying down the sidewalk after roller blading down the newly resurfaced street near our house. For a second there I had wondered if I had killed her suggesting it but no crashes occurred!
Danny had a blast at the ward YM/YW Potato Derby activity. Added bonus: the car he and Noah made won the award for best decoration and they got prize candy. (Kate was with volleyball friends at middle school night at the pool.)
Kate and Danny have decided they are too old for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science but I feel like they missed out this time. The mirror maze in the temporary "Numbers in Nature" exhibit was worth the drive alone. We liked that temporary exhibit so much we grabbed last minute tickets to the other one, Stonehenge, too. Michelle wanted to see what Stonehenge was really about because in the Artemis Fowl books it was just a pizza place. lol. It was well done and I'm glad we spent the extra money to see it but the mirror maze was definitely our favorite part of the day. We also dropped by the dinosaurs, ate lunch, and enjoyed the space exhibit before a quick stop at Costco on the way home.
