Cat In the Hat Comes to Town
We were lucky enough to find out about a very cool FREE event a couple weeks ago - brunch and story time with the Cat in the Hat! Anson is a HUGE fan, and we all love Dr. Seuss, so we had to go. The boys loved it, but Camille was deathly afraid of the Cat (a first for any of my kids to be scared of any strange creature)!

Anson's Date with Mama
I have been trying to do a special day alone with one child each week over the summer. First up was Anson! We enjoyed a morning downtown and boy did he love it!

Random Fun
The second week of summer break Grady had a Lego camp in the morning. He had a fantastic time, and I found lots of ways to keep the small guys busy. We had story time at the bookstore where they read "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" and gave out fresh baked cookies from the cafe. They also read "If You Give a Cat a Cupcake" and decorated (paper) cupcakes. Anson was very proud of his!
One evening that week Grady made berry muffins with me!
We had a cool pretend ice cream shop outside one day. The ice cream was frozen scented shaving cream! So realistic. They loved it, but it did not last very long since it was so hot outside!
I colored rice for sprinkles!
Later that week the kids went to a kazoo concert at the library. It was super fun!
Anson got to dance on "stage"
All the kids got nice kazoos!
Then it was a quick trip to the park before getting Grady from camp
He was so proud because he did this with no help
Here is Grady on the last day of camp. The theme for Lego camp was superheroes, so they dressed up the last day and brought in a creation they were proud of
Good times!
