Today is the last day of Summer but we fit a lot of fun into these last couple of weeks. This summer was really special and different and frustrating at times. We spent a lot of time together and had to get creative with our activities. We had to find the line between being safe and being social and the kids and Pat and I did not always agree on where that was so it was tough at moments! I hope we are not still in this position a year from now but I also know this situation brought us some special moments too.
Here's a roundup of any summer pictures from the last couple weeks that I hadn't posted!
We met one of Owen's teammates and his sister at Rinky Dink for the second summer in a row to do some mini golf and bumper boats (Here's
last year)

Masks down for some slushies! |

Bumper boats are always the biggest hit! They get soaked but it's always so hot they dry off quickly |
Paige's beach obsession has died down a little but she still wanted to fit one more trip in with her buddy Maeve.
Paige started taking an aerials class and she is so excited! I rarely go into the studio now but I popped in at her request and got to see her climbing. Pretty soon she'll be able to get to the top!
There has been no shortage of screen time this summer and this is the kids typical setup
Paige has started learning her solo for the upcoming dance competition season! She's loving it!
We finally got to the drive-in! We'd been waiting all summer for a movie that we actually wanted to see to be playing and we got lucky right at the end with Bill and Ted Face the Music! The weather was perfect and we got a great spot!
Owen has been training for cross country even though we weren't sure they'd even have a meet. We got this notification from his coach, featuring Owen, so I guess it's on!
Crazy amounts of rain flooded the rivers so we went and checked it out. This is usually a waterfall...
