Hallie is 12 and the Fair!

She's 12!!! Started middle school this week and got into advanced math class (so did her friend Leah). 

We went to Pelicans with Leah's family and Violette's family. The kids took the pics!

Fair on Friday night!

Justin driving bumper cars!

Justin got on the small double swings with Hallie! It's the highest ride he's been on so far!

They rode three times!

He also did the boat!

Hallie did the big swings by herself which were like Carowinds and they did the Carousel.

August memories!

 The first week of August was Nana/Papa camp!

The kids went to a waterfall/Price Park and the Lazy 5 Ranch!

They swam in the pool, drove/rode the golf cart, slept on the couches, played card games!

Athrun, Abel, and Sydney came as well!

Jason and I got a cold that week (tested negative for covid) so it wasn't the week I expected here...

The kids then had two more weeks of YMCA camp, which they loved!

They both enjoyed new friendships!  

The week before going to the beach,we had gone to Walmart to get a vacuum and the kids convinced us to get some more card games.

 So we got Monopoly Deal and Dos.  We have been playing that many many evenings

Some fun at Karen's pool! They kept jumping on these and many times falling off!

We did alittle bday celebration for Hallie and Grandma on August 20th.  

Hallie made her a bracelet and a birthday card which she loved!

I took off the week of August 22nd.  Tuesday we went to Blowing Rock with mom to Price Park, the downtown park, and Shops on the Parkway for some ice cream! They had cornhole there that Justin enjoyed playing and Hallie and I did some Connect 4.

We played lots if card games too!

Open house for Hallie was on Wednesday afternoon and her friend Leah is in all but one of her classes! 

We went on Saturday to Linda and Gary's with my mom and dad.
