We didn't waste any time with getting into the swing of our summer routine. Last Monday marked the start of a summer full of new opportunities, new friends, and new fun for the boys!
Luke started summer school through our school district and is taking a 3-week class about exploring space. Summer school is held at a neighboring campus within our district so Luke is getting to spend time at a new school with different teachers. His other big activity for June is a Lego club on Tuesday afternoons at the YMCA. Children ages 6-12 spend about 90 minutes building a variety of creations. Our little Lego fan LOVES this club!
Reid is also now at the age where he can take part in some of his own summer programs, too. First up ... Vacation Bible School! This was held at the same school where he will attend preschool in the fall, so it was a great test drive. The first day of VBS was bustling with excitement with nearly 350 kids attending. WOW! Reid handled it all in stride and loved that the theme involved pirates setting sail on the sea. His favorite things about VBS were the songs and playing games.

Our other big summertime activity for the week ... a garage sale! For several weeks, we priced and prepped our items to get ready for our neighborhood garage sale this past weekend. We raised nearly $175 on Friday (Saturday's sale ended up being rained out). The money will be donated to the Colon Cancer Alliance through a 5K race that Jami is doing in a few weeks.
With so much traffic on our street for the garage sale,
our neighborhood kiddos made a lemonade stand.
As the sign says, "Free Lemonade ... Yummy!"
Best deal of the day!
