Endless Doughnuts

Well there was some crazy weather today.  I was at work at it was sunny out and we heard thunder and saw lightening.  It took a while for the clouds and eventual rain to come.  It had been raining a chunk of the day near home and camp where they were on a rainy day schedule.  Ariel won a bunch of ribbons at camp during Olympic Week.  Aden didn't get any yet and he's super jealous.  I might have mentioned he really wants to get stronger and faster so he's going to have a few sessions with a trainer at the NAC to see what we can do.  

Amazing they still play with the house.
 Hey, what are you guys up to?
Oh, I see!

Yes Noah, we see the mess.

 Aden was playing with his friends who take karate when they started talking about the sit ups and push ups and burpies they have to do.


 Aden said that was all easy so they challenged him.
 The twins were like what?
 Yeah, not so easy!



I had 2 days of continuing legal education classes in center city Philly.  Of course I had to make a stop at Beiler's doughnuts at the Reading Terminal Market.
 Yum.  Choices, choices.
 I take my classes with City employees so the mayor and city council are usually there.  Here is mayor Kenney talking to us.
 There were about 300 people there for 12 hours of classes.
 Back to the market the next day.  I love this display.  It must take forever to cut all this meat.
 Back for some more doughnuts!


 They work so quickly, it's amazing to watch.
 Fog in the City.
 Yummy lunch in Chinatown.  
 On the way back to the train on the second day I thought about a doughnut till I saw the line!
 So I picked up some gluten free funnel cake and corn dogs for everyone!

So Many Visiting Days

It's Tuesday night.  We just had a fairly successful dinner out with the 6 of us.  The babies actually sat quiet in the high chairs and even ate a little!  It's the small things!  It's carnival week at camp. The kids are enjoying it.  Aden and Ariel had their last book club tonight.  It's such a nice program.  The twins are talking more everyday.  The say I see moon and they are adding adjectives to nouns.  

Back to last week.
 Eli was rocking.


 Heather watched the twins so could go to dinner before we picked up Aden from late night at camp.

 The sky is getting dark!
 Camp is different at night.
 The kids were playing indoors.

 Ariel and Ava watching.
 Here comes Aden from late night.  They had an extra swim, played games, ate dinner, then made smores over camp fires.

 Teasing Noel.
 The next day.
 Aen wrestles with the twins.




 A couple of days later, Amy and her parents went to visiting day.
