Summer is in full swing. Last Friday we had lunch with daddy and then headed to the science museum to see the New Hall of Paleontology. It is as big as a football field and is full of new dinosaur skeletons. Most impressive was the assembled jaw of the king of sharks-the Megalodon which was twice as big as the great white! We also saw "The Last Reef'" in 3D. Samuel loved it, but Esther thought the music was too loud and that scared her a bit. Next time we'll try the planetarium. "Black Holes" or "Night of the Titanic" will be our choices. Very exciting!
Two teeth!
Our first trip to the beach this summer, Surfside.
Of course, everything is better with friends!!!
We have been bringing this blue pool to the beach with us since Esther was too little to go in the ocean. It always gets occupied. :)
Samuel is to the right with his boogie board, and his friend Ethan L. in front of him. The waves were strong and both were a little beat up, but kept on going...
And of course what is a summer without some video games. I have to admit, they are my least favorite thing about summer, but Samuel gets a limited time playing them and only after piano, reading, workbook, and chores have been completed.
Competition for the remote...
4th of July. We celebrated the blessing of living in this wonderful country in the good company of dear friends. It was a great day!
These were the only fireworks we saw this year, the ones in our own backyard.
We also celebrated aunt Rebekah's Birthday. The kids helped pick out her card and cake. Esther even helped make the cake! We are so happy that she spent her Birthday with us!
Maggie's eyes! So darling!
