Thankful for sweet summer days! The girls have mostly gotten along very well this summer and it's been fun times together! August will be a few special weeks before school starts with two trips and some slower days at home. In our town, all of the summer rec activities are the first six weeks of summer with a few stand alone day camps/activities in the rest of July, so August is the most free month of summer schedule wise, which is nice to have some schedule free time together before the routine of school begins again!
I like to be very organized, but I had a mega whoops moment and took the girls to a neighboring town (in our suits and towels) for a foam party that we realized happened in June and not July when we got there and I had written it down for the wrong month. It bothered me that I did that, but I am not perfect and we all had a good laugh at my embarrassing moment and we still had a fun time together getting ice cream at Blue Bunny.
Ragbrai (an annual huge bike ride across the state of Iowa) started in our town this year! It was a wild time of having 20,000+ people flood in and people were everywhere and our schools/college/golf course were filled with campers. There were lots of stands, food trucks, and music performances and it was a fun atmosphere. Kley loved getting to play some music at our park bandshell! We had a group of 19 camp in our backyard too!
The girls got to participate in a little golf camp at our local course.
Following the golf camp, they had a parent/child golf tournament and Kley and Lucy played in it and won! Go Kley and Lucy! (Norah and Ellory could have played too but chose to pass.)
We had the greatest Saturday in Okoboji with the Groeneweg family, our friends from church who invited us to their family lake house for the day. We all had a blast swimming, riding on their boat, using their giant lily pad, jet ski rides, and getting a nutty bar after supper. It was such a perfect summer day!
