First week of summer

We kicked off summer with a special breakfast of sprinkled donuts last Friday morning. 
 
 
 
 

Later that morning we met up with some of Zane's former preschool classmates at a neighborhood playground. Zane had a soccer game Saturday and we "celebrated" Mother's day Sunday. Luke and the boys went and got me breakfast and we had Dickey's Barbeque for lunch. Sunday afternoon I went to the dollar store to stock up on a few things for the boys to keep them busy as we attempt to watch less tv during the day.
Mother's Day photo...nailed it.

All in all we've had a good week, even with some low points including screaming and fits from the boys (and mom as well). We've enjoyed beautiful weather,
 
logged several hours at various playgrounds,
the boys redeemed themselves from our failed Mother's day photo op
 had picnic lunches with dear friends,
lunch with the Pitts
 
lunch with the Speers
baked cookies,
 
 ate frozen blueberries, which the boys clearly loved, 
 
 
 
climbed trees,
 
had special visitors from our time in MT drop by, met Luke at IKEA for lunch one day, played with the new water table
 
 
 and even squeezed in a little "school work." 

 I am especially thankful for a particularly good day today. Hopefully the next three months will include many more days like today.
