Worn Out

We spent the majority of the day on Shoal Bay East.  It was beautiful and by far the most gorgeous beach ever.  We walked the beach, floated in the clear water, flew our kite, and had fun playing.  All the activity wiped out the children.  Reed was out before we made it to the main road, and Ryland and Ridley weren't far behind. 

Stage Fighting

Another hot Texas afternoon spent at the library learning about new things.  Today's presentation was on stage fighting.  Two professional "pirates" taught us how sword fighting in movies and plays is actually fake.  The kids were blown away at all the tricks they learned, and Ryland and Reed were begging for swords.  

The boys pose with the fighting pirate.  Reed is still a little unsure of this stranger.

  They must have really enjoyed our fun day, because they both fell asleep hours before bedtime.  I love summer!

First VBS

We had a great week at White's Chapel!  This is the first year that we participated in VBS, and it was a ton of fun.  Ryland loved the crafts and playing with friends. Reed seemed to be happy as could be hanging out in the nursery.  They both were worn out by lunch and ready to relax at home, which I loved. I volunteered the entire time, and I was exhausted too.

We had so much fun our first year.  We plan to be back next year for more!
