friday 7/25: we did some outside art today. experimenting with colored bubbles and tried to make some paintings. it was a bit windy and the bubbles were blowing away! we drew with chalk for a bit and then i made a game for them to play. they had to find the path of same colored circles from on end of the driveway to the next. it kept them busy for at least a half hour!
we went to zhang's for dinner. it was malloy's pick - she LOVES chinese food! her favorite dish there is the coconut shrimp. rex also likes that he can pick out what he wants to eat. especially the jello!
saturday 7/26: we had a fun morning!!! we went down to the farmer's market and bought some molasses cookies (the favorite pick for 4 years in a row!) and do a craft. they made magic wands! after the market, we took a walk through glen park, in the streams and up some rocks. then, the glen park art festival was going on, so we walked around and looked at the booths, got some popcorn, and then sat in the shade and ate a hot dog and some chips while listening to live music. after the festival, the walk for hunger was going on at island park and there were fun activities for kids! malloy loved bouncing in the bounce house and running in a relay race! rex loved eating the "rainbow"- different colored fruits and veggies- to win a prize. before we left, both kids got their face painted. it was fun morning full of surprises! we finally got home around 1pm!
sunday 7/27: the kids had a cozy morning on the couch with their stuffed animals. they love to play with their animals! and this if only half of them - the other half is packed away. this afternoon we went to island park to swim and play at the park. rex is swimming really fast these days!!! and malloy is trying really hard to do the monkey bars. it's been her goal all summer. she's getting a few bars on her own now!!
