We celebrated Mommy's birthday this past week! The kids were so excited to celebrate with her and to help in the unwrapping of her gifts. We celebrated her for several nights, although technically we would all celebrate her birthday for the entire month of June, but more so during the week of her actual birthday. We even baked her favorite carrot cake!!
In the meantime, we continue to keep busy with summer vacation and activities. The weather is stifling and hot, which kind of limits our activities to some things indoors, or late afternoon/early evenings, which is during the time storms usually come around. And it's only going to get worse!
Here was our week:
Consolidating their tickets from chores to turn in for prizes!
Standing up for the Pledge of Allegiance for Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
Hooked up with the Grodacks at the pool.
Everyone was pooped at the end of a busy week!
Even Tux found a very comfortable spot.
Admiring our backyard as we explored the Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive.
Mommy getting her steps in, she opted to walk for half a mile or so in the afternoon heat!

The speed limit was only 10 mph so we were able to have the kids walk around the car during the tour.

I think Mommy has a new profession in the making. Go Tangie, please take over the hair job, my hands and shoulders are wearing out on me! It looks like a fun week to me. Love to you all, Nana
