The day after we returned from our trip, we celebrated Billy for Father's Day, with a trip to Pizza Hut (his choice.) Before we left, I asked the kids to make cards, so that it wouldn't be a rush the morning of. We sure are thankful for the awesome Dad Billy is every single day!
We had to come back to reality quickly after vacation mode, since William had a follow up orthopedics appointment, he will continue to be montiored. He might be a little big for the entertainment they offer in the waiting room.
On Tuesday, William asked if we could do teatime on Wednesday, since we all enjoyed the tea and poetry time during our homeschooling days. The girls were amiable, so I laid the books out with their Latin folders for the next day. It was a pleasant endeavor! We had a few 'special' cookies, but not Milanos, so I'll have to up my game next time. The poems were funny, interesting, poignant, and thought provoking!
Sumer Schedule 2026, for posterity.
Next up, Grace had a dermatology appointment, only good news! We tacked on a trip to a nearby thrift store, and then used a coupon from Cinnabon that was about to expire. And, since it was so close to Billy's office, brought it to him, and he had time to sit with us outside and enjoy the pretty day!
Wild flowers? Planted flowers? They were really pretty, either way!
There's a joke in the north that traffic cones are the state flower, since they can only do much of the construction during the warmer months of the year. So, the sign 'growing' in the flower patch seemed apropos.
Grace made a fun carwash out of the couch cushions, then left to spend the night a friend's house. I did see part of Alice hanging out in there later that night, so it must have been pretty comfy!
Emily and Grace a planning a Fourth of July party, and were working on the banner.
One morning I had put on a fun little German song for the kids to enjoy, and after it moved on, Fallout Radio came on. I turned it off and three of them asked for it to be turned back on! So, we listened to Fallout Radio. It definitely made me want to play, sadly I had chores to tend to, so I didn't have the time.
Billy is off tomorrow (July 3rd) since the Fourth falls on a Saturday this year, which means we won't do our dailies, and everything will be more relaxed! And I really feel we need more relaxing, because it has been a lot of go-go-go so far!
later days
