A farewell to summer

At the beginning of the summer, the kids and I made a list of all the things they wanted to do. We got out the list yesterday, and we were excited to see that we had checked them all off!
Here's our list of summer fun (with commentary):
- go to the movies (lots of them)
- swim at Keller Pointe
- Six Flags (that was so much fun!)
- playdates with friends
- Cousin Camp (at my parents)
- family game nights (we played lots of Monopoly - Grant is quite the pro!)
- Grant and Garrett to Camp Thurman (they LOVED this)
- Halle Grace to Art Camp (with Macie Pope)
- have an indoor camp out (it was a pretty wimpy version, just sleeping in sleeping bags in the playroon, but they said it counts! :)
- go to the park
- go visit Grandma Prince in California (Halle Grace got to meet a bunch of extended family)
- go visit the Prestons in Charlotte (great trip!)
- Grant wanted to go to Chicago (Scott took him for his birthday)
- Wacky Week (VBS at church)
- go visit Aunt Kathy and Uncle Kenny

What a fun summer we had! But come August, we are all ready for school, sports activities, and cooler weather.
