July Activities

I'm trying to catch up on my posts so I'm going all the way back to July.

Lauren had some flavored tootsie rolls she was eating one day.  She was sitting quietly at the table for awhile and I finally asked her what she was doing.  She brought over a tootsie roll flower she had rolled out and made.  I asked her where she learned to do it and she said she made it up by herself.  She's always liked playing with her food.  :)  So creative.

 This was our trip to Fairview for the 24th of July.  We camped at the campsites there at Skyline Resort and attended all the 24th activites like the parade, city breakfast, etc.  We also went to the drive-in in Mt. Pleasant.  We hauled the four-wheeler trailer behind the truck and everyone laid out their sleeping bags to enjoy the movie.  Half the kids were asleep when it was over, but they loved it!!!

 We did a lot of swimming too.  The diving board was a hit this year.  Even though the girls weren't daring enough to do any tricks, Todd was up for the challenge.  He had to show his nephews that he could still do a flip off the diving board.  I got half of him in the pic, but he did it.
