One More Week!

We have one more full week of summer break before school begins! Where did the summer go? We had the chance to sneak in some more summer activities this past week. We went to our favorite summer restaurant, The Stone Barn, with some of our favorite families the Auths and the Daniels. The kids had a blast playing football, hide and seek, and kick the can while we waited for our pizza. We went to the Big Rig Truck and Tractor Show in Eau Claire. Bennett and Blake loved looking inside the cabs of the trucks. Their favorite truck was the Green Bay Packers truck. They said they could live in there "forever!" We set up our own homemade slip 'n slide on one of the hot days this past week. The boys had fun zooming down the slide and running back up again. We are going to savor every moment of this last week of summer!

Date at the Drive-In

Last summer one of our must-do list items was to go to a drive-in movie theater. Sadly, that was one item we never got to on our list. The boys and I made it a priority this summer to go to the drive-in. About a week ago we saw that the local drive-in was playing the new "Planes" movie. Just another reason why we needed to go to the drive-in. The highlights, besides the movie, for the boys were- eating popcorn and snacks, playing catch with the football before the movie started, and snuggling under the stars while they watched the movie!
