Summer Bucket List

We are working on a "summer bucket list"...we have made a list, that can be added to at any time, of things we want to do before school starts in the fall (yes! School Starts for Maggie August 13th).
 Here we are having breakfast in Washington Park.
 Once Maggie had to go potty in the bushes, I gave up on staying clean...they are putting their feet in the water.

 I let them get whatever they wanted for breakfast...Katie is eating cookie from Chick-fil-A.
 Another item on our list - the LIBRARY! I have never taken the girls to the library. Today, we got a library card and enjoyed our first visit to the library.

The library was a hit! We are big fans.

VBS

We had a great week at Vacation Bible School last week!
 We had over 100 kids each day. We had around 55 volunteers each day as well...that was the best part, getting to know other people and kids in the church.

Summertime

Summer is in full swing...the Macon heat is not keeping us inside though.
 We spend every minute outside.
 We went to Bryant's house a couple of times...
 ...it's beautiful out there!

Heading to Holden's Superhero Party...
 After two hours of holding her mask and cape in her hand, Maggie finally put her costume on!
 She was a little bit overwhelmed by the superheros...she kept saying, "I just like princesses." 
 Thanks to Aunt Kate for making it an amazing day!
