The business of this summer continues on. We dropped Shakeinne off at the bus on Thursday and all of the kids are definitely missing having him here. We spent some time catching frogs and building shelters around the yard after Noah and James finished up their Wild camp. They learned so much and were very excited to pass what they learned on to their younger siblings. Audrey got her first haircut this week. She did an awesome job with the cut and requested two braids after, but then refused to let me take a picture, so here is one of the back of her head I snuck in as she climbed into the car;)
We checked some things off our summer bucket list this week too. We made some lemonade from real lemons and enjoyed it with a picnic lunch out back. We were joined by Matilda and George Washington who didn't understand why we didn't want them on our blanket eating our lunch.
We have had such a full summer we almost didn't realize that we hadn't been camping once! So, in the true fashion of doing things last minute, late the night before planning, we decided to go for it. Gabe was on call, which is probably why he agreed to something so spontaneous;) We headed to Boothbay on a Saturday, tented for 1 night and headed home. It was a whirlwind trip, but really fun! We got in some swimming, visited with old friends, had s'mores, ate in an old tugboat, saw the taffy, ate some ice-cream and visited the aquarium. We did have one day at home to unpack before the kids dentist appointments with their new dentist. It was Audrey's first visit and she was quite excited:)
