Parks and Summer Storms

In the vein of last week we kept up getting ready for the day early and hitting the parks!  I think we went to the park practically every morning this week... which may be bad because then Kylie will come to expect it and I find it exhausting!  But we had lots of fun and played hard until the sun got too hot.  In fact, on Tuesday we even went to the park in the evening for dinner!  It was the Primary Summer Party and both Kylie and Hayden had tons of fun and got really wet!!

So after parks and parks and swimming and parks, we finally got an awesome summer storm to play in.  We went out and took a walk in the rain and did some puddle jumping!

After our walk we got out our bikes and practiced riding them.  Kylie did amazing and learned how to break and turn around!!  Hayden liked me to push him around, but at least he had his feet on the pedals and was learning the motion.

On Saturday we had a fun family day.  We ran a few errands and found Kylie a cute backpack for school!  We are getting her all excited for preschool which starts at the end of the month.  Then we went and got sandwiches for lunch, and then went to Fiesta Fun to play.  We decided to be brave and try miniature golfing.  Hayden lasted one round.  Kylie lasted two.  Haha just kidding.  The kids were off and on for the game, but Kylie really tried (usually she would just go and put her ball close to the hole and then hit it in).

Afterwards we were really hot and so we cooled down by playing some arcade games.  The kids were only mildly interested, but Brandon really got into it!

THEN, as if that wasn't enough, we went and got some ice cream.  By then Hayden was very tired and we were all ready to come home and have a break!  The rest of the day was quite lazy which was perfect!
