Last Week

Hello again, just wanted to touch base for a minute. Things have been busy here lately and my phone is on the fritz right now so it's been hard to be technologically present.
The girls and I have been trying to get back into the swing of things since school will be starting soon. They have these little workbooks, Summer Bridge Activities, that are grade specific and really help them get prepared for the upcoming year. They started out asking me for help on every single problem but now they are figuring things out on their own, which is pretty cool to watch. They have been doing the "Dig Into Reading" Summer program at the local Library. The girls had to read 50 books in order to go to the Pool Party and they accomplished that little goal last week. We have really been enjoying all of the programs the Library has been hosting, last week we got to learn from an upside down artist and interact with the OKC Improv. The girls really seemed to enjoy all of the fun programs that the Library hosted.
Today we got up early and started cleaning out the girls rooms. There we're toys in there from 4 years ago! It took about 4 hours but we loaded up 3 contractor sized bags of just trash, 3 bags of donation items, and 2 bags for some friends. They are getting some new furniture soon so now their rooms are nice and cleared out.
Adam and I had a great weekend, we had friends over for dinner on Friday (recipe post coming soon) and we spent Saturday and Sunday building a palette coffe table (DIY post coming soon)!
