Clue

For my final birthday play, Thomas and I went to Clue at Segerstrom.  It was so funny and cleverly executed!  We ate at In-n-Out before the play too.

I have absolutely loved my one-on-one dates to the theater for my birthday this year!

 

Busy Week

Catherine lost another tooth!  Second one in a week!

I took all the kids to Soak City on Tuesday.  It's fun to have them all together.

On Wednesday we made strawberry jam and homemade bread.

On Friday, Thomas participated in a Stake Activity Days Camp.  Here he is drawing scripture stories with chalk.

 Catherine is learning to dive!  She loves it!

Happenings & Basketball

Lydia learned to braid hair with beads at Girls Camp.  We've been trying it out at home.

Catherine had a dental cleaning on Monday, and lost her tooth right before they cleaned!  The dentist commented that her tooth might not make it through the cleaning, and Catherine didn't want to lose it that way.  She worked on it while they set up some things and popped it out right before she was ready to clean!

Catherine has been going to swim lessons.  She's leveled up and working hard to improve each week.

We had our first basketball games of the summer season.  Both teams won!  

Catherine got a few steals and baskets!
