A few years ago, my mom gave me a book by the name Carefree Play Summer Day. We are having a bit of our own summer fun today. Sarah had a friend invite her out to play American Girl Dolls and the rest of them were playing Romper Room. (Yes, they do have on their bicycle helmets. Romper Room in our Living Room can get pretty wild!)
Also, this summer we have had the pleasure of enjoying our pool. Plus, our local bowling alley is giving free bowling to the kids - one free game every day the whole summer. Our bowling alley even throws in free shoes. Last week we went bowling 3 times! This week has been really busy, so we haven't gone bowling so many times again.
What have we been busy with this week? Well, our dear friends the Whites know how to throw a great party and yesterday we had a movie day at their house. The older kids watched Hugo and the younger kids watched Miss Spider (an adaptation of a book) - both free from a library across the lake. (Unfortunately, our library locally does not provide free movies, but that's OK. One of the other girls who came brought the movies from her library.) There were about 16 kids and 6 moms. We had popcorn, candy and drinks for the kids to "buy" with green "dollars" made from construction paper. It was a fun day.
Have I mentioned that I love summer just as much as the kids do?
