into the magic

 

Harkin has entered the wizardly world of Harry Potter. He read all the books in less than 3 weeks and then attended a very cool celebration at one of our local libraries. He loved every minute of it and has had lots of fun talking to his big brothers about Harry Potter's world.

the games have begun

All Harkin really wanted for Christmas was his own axis and allies game. He used to borrow Lardons but then would have to pick it up every night before bed. Now he has his very own with some new updates and we found a great place for him to play it during this past week while Eric hasn't been working.  He's a very happy guy!!
 

bingo times two

 So we hit the bingo night and had fun playing although it was  bit different this year. Only 6 games and only 1 board per game. In the past you would have about 4 cards each. The first night there was a crowd and we didn't win anything, although since the littles are so cute they each got a piece of candy on the way out, which they shared with their big brothers.

Bingo was being offered a few more times so we headed back out later in the week. This time however we were the only people signed up. 6 games 6 people, we had a good chance of winning. Izzy and I did not win. All the boys won with Landon and Harkin winning two times. Lots of candy and water bottles were won. Daddy and the boys were good sharers though. SO smiles all around.

spotted: masked super heroes

They were out protecting all the creatures of our yard.

sprinkler fun

92*. It was so hot you didn't want to move. They put the sprinkler on and just sat there getting wet. It was the perfect way to cool off for a tiny bit. Jaxson would go up close but was careful not to actually go in it. The kids would put his toys so close that he had to get it and then he would be wet. Trying to make the best of the weather and summer.

early summer days

Trying to make the best of our days at a home and keeping cool. We were able to get to the lake one day and thankfully hardly anyone was there, so we could swim, while social distancing.😏

super hot days

We had a bit of a heat wave last week with temps reaching 95*. Big brother William came to the rescue and made a slip and slide. They all had a blast and were able to cool off for a few hours. It is so much fun to watch them when they all get along happily and can still play nicely together.
