 HURRICANE HARBOR

Brooklyn and Audrey having a snack break at Hurricane Harbor. We enjoyed it for the week it was open before our Governor decided to shut down all waterparks and gyms due to Covid-19 concerns. 

FATHER'S DAY!

Jared enjoyed celebrating the day with his sweet kids. They gave him is favorite Australian black licorice and ginger beer.

THE BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER

This amazing toaster was a wedding gift that lasted 18 years. Unfortunately, Phillips no longer makes toasters so we couldn't replace it with another one just like it.

SWIM LESSONS

Audrey and Brook were able to get 2 weeks of private swim lessons until the teacher's brother came down with COVID. Audrey was almost swimming across the pool on her own before the lessons ended.

Brooklyn had a really hard time at first, but had learned to not cry and get more comfortable in the water. Their teacher is going on a mission, so we hope we can find another great teacher for next summer. 

HOME CHURCH

Audrey and Brooklyn acted out things that missionaries do (knock on doors, teach people, pray, etc.) while we sang "I want to be a Missionary Now." I thought they were the cutest missionary companions. 

CUPCAKE SALE

Maddy helped bake the cupcakes. Audrey made her own chef's hat out of paper.

Brooklyn and Audrey frosted them (with help).

They sold them to our family for 25 cents a piece.

SWIMMING

We have a super nice neighbor who lets us use her pool when we want to. It was nice to have a place to go with all the pools being closed. 

FAMILY FUN

Brooklyn is a good mommy tiger to Roary. She always brushes his teeth, reads him a story, and tucks him in at night. 

Audrey is always using her imagination to come up with fun crafts. She decided to make some sandals out of paper.

Brooklyn is excited to fit in Audrey's old Ravenclaw robe.

FRIENDS

We were happy that we were able to start in-person piano lessons again this month. The kids were excited to play with their friend Lily again.

We also were able to meet with our friends the Bergerons and the McGiffins. The kids were able to cool off with a backyard water fight.
