I'm soooooo excited it's a 3 day weekend. I live for 3 day weekends. Especially ones that kick off the official beginning of POOL SEASON!!
We had a pretty low-key weekend full of popsicles, American flags, pool time and splash pads.
A little relaxing with some essential oils being diffused on my brand spankin' new Aria diffuser. |
Hayes met (and immediately hugged) Elsa at his friend's birthday party at the park. She sang songs, taught dances and told her story... complete with the Frozen soundtrack. She was seriously talented!
Poppy enjoyed the party too! We ended the party in the splash pad. It was Poppy's first time and she absolutely loved it. We definitely have another water baby on our hands.
On Sunday we attended a very festive service at church and afterwards got to help feed less fortunate kiddos by putting together Summer Hunger Bags full of pantry essentials and yummy snacks.
We spent the rest of the day cooking out, swimming and drinking ice cold beer.
Today we hit up yet another splash pad. I think this is going to be a regular activity for us this Summer and I'm not mad about it. I never imagined having so much fun just watching my kids play, but I do.
Poppy had so much fun at the second splash pad but rarely cracked a smile. This girl is sooooo serious! Meanwhile Hayes is the happiest kid around. They're showing their extreme opposite personalities more and more everyday.
Now that May is wrapping up, what's on our agenda for the month of June?
Well, more splash pads and pools for sure. We're also planning the kids' shared birthday party, getting ready for our first beach vacation as a family of 4, having the exterior of house painted, giving our side yard a complete face lift, Justin starts teaching Summer school, I start working 4 day work weeks (down from 5), starting Camp Gladiator (actually we start TOMORROW) to get beach bod ready, and whatever else pops up!
I'll be sure to share along the way!
