Ariel Leaves on Father’s Day

Last Sunday, Ariel left us for camp.  We loaded her last bags and headed for Upper Moreland High School early.  
It was such a scene.  We knew so many people.  
Ariel quickly found her friends.  
And like that, she was home.  

Cousin love!
Our little family shot before Ariel got on the bus.  
Best friends!

Goodbye kisses!  See you in 3 weeks!


Bye!
Aden and I went to hit some golf balls.  
He did well.  Until he threw the club into the course.  
He had to run and get it!
It was funny!
They made it to camp!



Then Aden and I went to Lucatelli's.  I got the steak.  
Wow!
He got pizza.
Amy's mom and sister came over to play mahjong.  
Eli got really wet at Vicky's house.  
I had to run back to Upper Moreland High School because I couldn't find my credit card and had a feeling it fell out of my pocket.  
Well look what I found!
My dad and sister came for dinner.  I got McDonald's for Eli.  

 

The Day Before Camp

Last Saturday, we got up early and packed up.  
We headed home.  
We had our neighbor Jason's graduation party at a restaurant near us.  

The boys all on their phones.  
All the neighbors were there.  That was nice.  


Meanwhile, Ariel went to Tyler park with Bella, her dad and Fionna.  They went out on a canoe.  

They jumped off a cliff!
That afternoon, I took the twins to a laser tag party.  
Their school friends.  



I played one match with them.  
It is fun.  

We took Ariel and Aden and my sister to La Stalla for dinner.  Ariel's camp friends came by to get Rita's across the street so of course she had to hang with them.

First Beach Day!

Last Friday, I went for a jog.  
I ran into Ariel and Cece!



Bestie cuddles.
We all went to the beach!  It was a nice day.  Not too hot.  

We only lasted about an hour.  
We picked up Dairy Bar burgers and went to dad's to swim.  
The kids swam for hours.  
A new game for the backyard.  
There is Ariel!
The twins got hungry later in the afternoon.  We got Mack and Mancos delivered for a snack.  
We met Melissa and family at Shuckers for dinner.  
Hanging with the neighbors.  

We all walked to the Dairy Bar for ice cream including Honey.  
Yum!
This is a keeper!
We chilled on the balcony.  
It was a quiet night.  
Steven came down!  The boys were finally back together.  

The boys went to play golf while Elma and I had a drink across the street!  Have a great weekend!
