CANNONBALL
The kids are taking swim lessons this month.
They have all improved a ton
I'm so impressed with Mackayla, who had the most to learn,
she just took off with everything and is swimming like a champ now.
Cody and Macey are really learning the strokes and how to breathe better, and doing great too!
They all love it and we love their teacher!
We actually took these pictures of Mackayla so that Ben would be sure to see her in her cute outfit.
They have dance in the mornings and she either wanted to wear this all day so he could see or send him a picture~
My life is now complete
I went to a yoga on the beach RS activity
and it's maybe the coolest thing I've done since I've lived here.
I made these again the other day - this is the best chocolate on earth.
cacao, peanut butter, and pure maple syrup. No added sugar. Any excuse to eat chocolate.
Macy took a cooking class and LOVED it!
We went to a little place called Adventure Playground in Huntington Beach.
It's just $3 per kid to get in. So, you get $3 fun. That water they were in had a thin film of duck poop and for only being a 1/2 foot it was the murkiest water I've ever seen. We didn't die and the kids loved it!
They also had an area to build anything you want out of wood.
We made a bench and a frame. But you can probably tell from the picture. Right?!
We have 12 lbs. of strawberries...
Right after Adventure Playground we headed to Costco.
I always envisioned shopping would be so much easier once my kids were older because I wouldn't be juggling nap times and breakdowns...hahahaha
It's just different now. A different set of patience muscles that haven't been worked out before.
We finally made it through Costco 1 1/2 hrs. later without running anyone over, anyone running, etc. The samples help. It's so hard to move anywhere with three people constantly in your way!!
Checkout, lines are 5 people deep. They are checking my groceries, I realize I don't have my debit card. AAAHHH! I was willing it to appear; they were really uninterested in changing their credit card policy for me. My debit card had been missing for days (but I found it doing laundry today!)
I wanted to cry, not for the embarrassment or loss of my card, but because I had just successfully maneuvered my way through an entire shopping trip with my kids and failed!
Ben came to the rescue and went and picked them up on his way home. I love him.
They had my cart pulled off to the side and for some reason random people kept adding strawberries to the basket.
And we already had strawberries.
Good thing we love jam.
