Summer fun- Rokenbok

Jonas set up his remote control vehicle set which has been lots of fun for everyone.

4th of July

I got to meet my new nephew, Quade 4th of July weekend. He is now 5 weeks old and just over 6 pounds. We also went swimming and saw Toy Story 3.

Jonas has turned 10!

I now have a 10 year old. We had a fun day celebrating- we went to play miniature golf and laser tag at the arcade. Jonas got a pellet gun, new red light saber, and
N64 converter for the computer. He also got some cash and enjoyed choosing some new books and putting some in the bank. He picked out a Where's Waldo book. He has been busy this month attending 2 Cub Scout twilight camps and completing lots of Webelos requirements. He has read the Fablehaven book series by Brandon Mull. Jonas is such an awesome kid; he is a great example for his brothers and sisters and lots of fun.

Levi crawling

Levi is crawling all around the house now and pulling up. We are devising ways to contain him,so he doesn't disappear around corners and down the hallway. One was blocking the doorway with Adam's Cars chair. He is so cute and will come when I call him and go looking for him.

Bathroom remodel

Mike finished our bathroom remodel for the kids. Clara picked out the color scheme and it turned out really fun. Each wall is a different color. We love the funny monkey and frog shower curtain.

Summer- the first month

We have been having a great time this summer. This last week we did lots of fun math activities. The kids counted and rolled $49.00 worth of coins from our coin jar and we put them in their bank accounts. We played M&M math, yummy! chutes and ladders, did various worksheets and flashcards. Jonas and I played several rounds of Yatzee. We went to Celebration Park with my cousin Debra then went back to her house where we had a bubble bath in the jacuzzi tub. The kids loved it!
We have been on lots of bike rides to the park. Mike got a double bike trailer for Father's Day, so now I can ride my bike instead of pushing the stroller, it is so much cooler.

First day of summer

Today was the first official day of summer for us! It is 3:30pm and I feel that the kids have already done half of my at home activities for the summer. We have had a fun day. Clara went to a drama camp with her cousin Jett while Greta, Jonas and Adam played in the water outback and then sculpted with play-do. After lunch they all did more play-do, made a obstacle course, went on 3 treasure hunts, and cleaned up their messes. Next Jonas goes to cub scout camp. Then we will cook dinner, have a dance, and who knows what else?
