Fountain of fun

Max was cold (in this 100 degree heat wave) and Kira screamed for pjs, too!

This was Max and Kira giving mommy a break- next to her bed.


Still not a huge fan of the pool...

...but a fountain fully clothed? Pure joy!

Beating the heat at the farmers market 

Soaked!



We tried to get to the farmers market before it got to hot.  We should have tried harder!

Heat wave

Kira loves to give Max goodbye kisses at camp but she gets sad that "Maxey" does not come home with us.  There was a major heat wave today but for some reason Max dressed in a zillion layers.  He wore the basketball jersey he slept in, a swim shirt, a long sleeve sweater, and a jacket.  And pants.  Miss Beverly insisted that he take off his jacket before going to the playground (thank goodness he listens to her!), and she laughed as she recounted her surprise when Max peeled each shirt off. 

Kira had a fun play date with Tessa and Sadie 

Max's camp class had an art show.  The class put together a todem pole.

Max made an airplane so, "I can go back to Florida!" as well as a 3-D sculpture of a "bounce hanger" which he explained is a bounce house with something you can hang on inside.

Shots!

Kira see, Kira do

Guess why Kira went face first down the slide?  She did cry but then she did love it!



Second night in a row of paper plates and bathing suits- the perfect summer dinner!

"We grew a beanstalk! Because I watered the plants!" bragged Max as he watered the herbs for the second time ever.

"Pizza pie" (as Kira calls it) clean up is so much easier this way.  Max insisted on leaving his coaching clothes on, as he is likely saving his shorts for the snow.

Strike!

Another day, another crazy outfit for the General to wear to camp. 

All dressed up like Max!

Kira was upstairs playing nearly silently for 20 minutes.  She was playing with Max's clothes, which she later brought down stairs to dress Minnie and Cookie Monster ("Elmo") in.  Side note: Kira calls every Seseme character and her elbow, "Elmo".

Max went bowling with his camp today.

Everyone used the ramp, except Max. Miss Beverly said that every time it was Max's turn they moved the ramp away.

Max was the only one to get a strike!  Mr. Deveron lifted him up and everyone cheered.  Max later said that he did not even know who was holding him.  Everyone was so excited and none of the kids wanted to use the ramp after Max's big frame.

Pool night 

The kids ate dinner at the pool.  Mosquitos ate the kids. 

Max took the swim test at camp this week, but in his own words, "I drowned!".  He is still practicing.

They're back!

Back to camp! (with Mufasa)

Back to the playground!

"Plane!"



Kira dressed herself in Max's shorts!

...while Max dressed himself in his coaching clothes and watched the Olympics.  He asked if the red team was the Cougars.
