I'm really excited for summer vacation this year. We are all ready for a break from school! So far it has been great (all four days!) I'm trying to get into some kind of routine in the morning so the kids can get their reading and some math done. We used a free online math program last year and we are using it again this year. It is great, the kids don't usually fight me on it. I need to focus on helping Caitlyn and Jonah with their reading levels and comprehension. I also need to do better at reading to Hallee and Wyatt. So far so good, hopefully we can keep it up through out the summer.
Our first day of summer vacation was a blast. We met the Becks at the reservoir. The kids were so excited.
Jonah got right in and was freezing the rest of the time. He gets cold easily.
Caitlyn had fun on her board.
Wyatt loved it. He went back and forth between the sand and the water.
Hallee got in the water and had a blast.
The boys all had fun together. Wyatt did a good job of keeping up with the boys. They had a few water fights.
Caitlyn had a great time with the girls.
Hallee thought it was so funny to lay in the water! I was surprised at how much Hallee got in the water. She had a lot of fun in the sand too.
Hallee and Kenzee had fun with the rakes and shovels in the water. We stayed there for lunch. It was a lot of fun.
That night the Beck's came over and we left all of the kids home while the adults went to dinner. It was so nice to go out and visit without the kids! After, we came back here and visited while the kids played. It was a great way to kick off summer vacation! Emilee and I ended up going to a late movie that night. Keith is always great about encouraging me to do things like that!
