The Close of Summer

Two peas in a pod

It’s been a wonderful summer together but has gone so fast. 

Both kids said two of their favorite things from the summer were things we did this week!  James went to work with Kenny for most of the day on Tuesday and he LOVED it.  He packed a bag of books and a little laptop Kenny got running for him to use.  James has been very interested in the coding that Kenny does at work, so he checked a book out at the library about coding for kids, and dove in on Tuesday.  Kenny helped him along and other YL co-workers encouraged James through the day.  So fun. 

The lilies are so tall this year!

Dad brought balloons home from work!

And Anna’s favorite thing was swimming this week at a nearby outdoor pool.  Typically you need a membership to use the gym and pool but we received a free one-day pass in the mail and decided to try it out.  It was great fun and the kids had a blast.  A wonderful way to say goodbye to summer!
