The Theoretical Calm Before the Storm...

I'm not really sure we're experiencing calm. The pace is, well, intense. We had a successful sleepover with Heidi & Julia which included pizza, watching Frozen, sleeping in the living room, and morning donuts! A good time was had by all. Although, I probably won't volunteer for couch duty next sleepover...

Garrett finished 7th grade on Friday and Tom picked him up for the summer on Saturday morning. We had a bbq in the backyard on Saturday afternoon with some friends and neighbors. It was really nice to take a moment and talk with everyone.

Today we celebrated Father's Day! We kicked the celebration off with some packing!! Just what Tom had hoped for this year!! Then we took pitty on him and showered him with some fancy new duds for living where it's hot and sunny. We finished up the evening with the Bennetts. They graciously invited us over for a home cooked meal and some intense play time! We also took a lovely stroll through Columbia Park which is only about a block from their house.

Lauren made some amazing dirt cup desserts! The kids couldn't get enough of them. Nora even said "Mmm Mmmm Mmmmmmm!" It was really cute!

Well, the "calm" ends tomorrow... the movers arrive first thing! Here we go!!
