Final Friday

We spent our final Friday in town doing some things that can only be done here.

first up, we went to the science center

 the dinosaur exhibition is still going on and the kids loved it

 I've created a monster of my own!  Cooper used my phone all day to take pictures!

 I think this was their favorite place in this city

 we also went to the aquarium section of the center

 Cooper taking more pictures

 he touched the crab shells

 seeing "Smiley" one more time

 After the Science Center, lunch &grocery shopping...it was time to go to the pool

to say they have enjoyed having a pool out their back door is an understatement!

Tired

A long day of VBS, swimming and playing makes a certain 4 year old tired!!



Best Friends

We've begun our round of saying "good bye" to all of our friends.  Today, Reagan's long time friend Emma came to play in the pool with us!  Reagan and Emma are church friends and were in the same kindergarten class and a had a few classes together in the first grade.

 Natalie, Emma & Reagan

 Sweet friends!

There may or may not have been a few tears shed when saying our final good-byes this afternoon.  Hopefully, this isn't good bye ~ it's just see you later!

Smile

As a reward for good behavior, I treated the kids to Salsarita's and Rita's after Bible School today.  I think they enjoyed it!!!

Play Time

Tonight, the kids and I were blessed to have dinner with some of our good friends.  While Cathy and I chatted about everything (and nothing), the kids had a great time playing.

Amazing!

You've got to see this!



Swimming, Swords & Shows

After a round of golf for the boys, the Whitford and the Sandidge families enjoyed swimming in the pool, playing swords, and putting on a swimming show!

Cooper didn't waste any time jumping into the pool

Reagan loves the slide

 A sword fight broke out!

 Reagan and Braden put on a swimming show for the parents
