Race Cars, Friends, and New Tree Fun

-

We decided our July wasn't action packed enough with summer camps and splashpad parks days so we were lucky enough to throw in a super fun Pinewood Derby for Owen hosted by Grandma P and her Activity Days Boys, plant a new Serviceberry tree in the front yard, play water games with neighborhood friends in the backyard, and have fabulous visits from our Texas friends!!  

The Lee family spent 2 action packed days with us in Morgan before heading to their family reunion.  The Archers played all day Sunday with us before returning home to Texas from their family reunion.  I'm sure thankful for family reunions because they mean much needed friend reunions for me!  Oh how we miss our Texas friends so having them take time out of their busy travel schedules to visit and play with us meant so much.  We're still smiling from all their happy company. :D 

Pinewood Derby Prizes!

Look out!  They have water squirters!

We're so excited to be playing with our Archer friends that it's impossible to get the kids to pose for a picture.  Too many smiles and giggles to contain in this group!

The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
