This weeks adventure

This week so far has been a fun and exciting one.  On Monday the kids and I had summer school in the morning then for a activity we went to Borders Book Store and they each selected a book out of the clearance section to read this week.  Karston chose "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" since purchasing this book he has already read it twice.  I am so impressed by his reading skills!!  Kiana chose a book that I think every Mom should read with their daughters.  This is a book my Grandma Garrison read to me and my sisters when we were little (so it is very special to me.) The book is titled "One Hundred Dresses" Kiana and I are almost finished reading it.  As soon as we are done with the book I will post some of the activities we do to go along with the book and the lessons learned in it.

Tuesday we went to Summer Day Camp and the kids had a BLAST!!!  They really had a great time playing around in the water with their friends back in Loch Lomond.  The kids really miss playing with their friends each day.  Summer camp is something they really look forward to!  Also on Tuesday we had the opportunity to bring in dinner to a family living next store to my in-laws.  The kids always love help making meals for others and helping bring them over.  Where ever I live I always do my best to get involved.  I have found that serving is the best way to get to know those around you.  

Wednesday I was supposed to go to the Hospital and get my RhoGam shot but, I keep finding reasons to put it off.  I am so super afraid of needles this is ridiculous! Really I know I need to go but, Ahhhhhh.....I hate getting shots.  After Summer School (today's theme was math) the kids and I went to Cub Scouts.  I was called as the Bear Leader (again) I'm excited I really don't mind serving in scouts.  The activities are easy and fun!  Today we made tin can burners and cooked Hot Dogs.  Karston really enjoys being a honorary scout!  He really tries to get involved and help out anyway he can! After scouts we played on the slip and slide and put the sprinkler under the tramp.  It was a lot of fun staying cool while playing in the sun.  The kids went with Romney and Kirstin this evening so it was just me and Jeremy's Dad for dinner.  We made homemade pizza together.  It was a lot of fun!!  After dinner I attempted to go for my run.  This is becoming more and more difficult.  I only went 2 miles and had to quit.  I think in the next couple of weeks I'm going to end up wogging (walk jogging) my workouts!

Thursday the kids went to Day Camp again and had a BLAST!!!  They really had such a great time playing with their friends!!!  Again I some how avoided going to the Hospital for my shot.  The kids were super good today we just played all day.  We ran some quick errands and just played.  I feel so tiered right now (I'm not sleeping at all anymore) that I really need days like this when I don't have anything to worry about.  It was nice.  We made dinner and brownies for dessert.  The kids were so wasted from playing outside they all fell asleep by 7:30pm.  

Today is Friday and we had summer school this morning.  Today's lesson went really well.  Today was Social Studies and the kids are almost done memorizing all 50 states.  I'm so proud of them!!!  We are going to start working on the Presidents within the next couple of weeks.  Right now we are going to go up to the canyon to look for bugs and rocks (should be fun!) 

I hope everyone has a great weekend!! I will go to the Hospital today and get my shot.  I have to I have run out of days and excuses.  Please wish me luck (I don't know what I think is going to happen) I love you all and will talk to you soon!
