Aug. 23 through Aug. 30

Sunday, Aug. 23



We hosted Peterson FHE tonight and Ben and Natalie decided to show off their "Chicken Dance". Natalie's been practicing it at her little Wee Sing class on Wednesday's.

Monday, Aug. 24

For Bryan's day off today, we took Natalie up to the zoo. They have several new baby animals...an elephant, giraffe, tigers, and snow leopards. We took Aunt Jen and Bryson along as well. It started out cool and overcast but ended up being rather hot. We enjoyed one last showing of the bird show before the summer's over.

We've tried to head outside after dinner to enjoy the last of the warm summer nights. The days are starting to shorten and we want to enjoy the light evening while they last. Being outside in the summer though often means dirty feet! The picture doesn't quite show all the dirt..they were pretty black!

Even though Ben's moved on to First Grade and loves it, he still likes to get out his Kindergarten portfolio and movie and reminisce about being in Mrs. Craven's class.

Natalie has enjoyed playing with Haydn this week..he was sick last week and she's missed her little buddy. She was excited to have him come over to play now that he's feeling better.

Ben loved wearing his goggles in the tub this week and trying to view the toys underwater. He worked up the courage to stick his face in the water but not after much careful planning of how to plug his nose and make sure his goggles wouldn't leak!

Saturday, Aug. 29




We spend the evening outside after dinner while the kids rode their bikes and scooters up and down the street. Natalie calls this little push toy her "scooter" and actually rides it quite gracefully like a scooter. Ben raced up and down passsed her. Good times!
