Our Church has organized some activities these past couple of months for the kids during the day. It has been nice and helps keep the week moving. This morning we were up early with the sun....and heat to head out to the Blue Bell Creamery to learn about ice-cream. To all our MI family, we are not forgetting about our wonderful Hudsonville ice-cream, but Blue Bell is a pretty good substitute for us here in Tulsa. The kids were able to watch them fill up ice-cream containers full of sherbet and cookie-n-cream ice-cream. They ended the tour with, what else? ice-cream, my chocolate covered cherry flavor was delicious. The girls were all about the sherbet and Brayden loved chocolate. James loved any that was put anywhere near his mouth! We spent the rest of the day, swimming in out little pool....which finally got a hole (surprising that this has not happened sooner) jumping on the tramp and playing Wii with friends-lots of activity made for a fun filled day... and yes it was 104 today!
Tonight we headed out to the library so the kids could claim their prizes from their summer reading program. Each kids had twenty books on their lists and were very proud to turn them in. Brayden's books were all ones he had read. Becca's were a combination but she had written the titles on her list. It is so fun to see them grow and being slowly able to do some things themselves. They are at great ages, still loving the little things in life and able to take direction with out too much complaining or eye rolling!
