June Happenings

Wild Waves!

Doug got to come with us!

Kenzie and Coleman with their friends, Jenna and Blake playing Just Dance.

Kenzie and Jenna got their nails done.

And then we went to Cheesecake Factory. Christina came too.

Coleman played baseball.

Swimming at Grandma's pool!

It didn't heat up until the first day of summer and we were a bit worried summer would never come, but luckily it did:)




Kenzie grabbed my phone...






Father's Day/Coleman's Family Party

We had a great Father's Day celebrating Doug. That night we also had Coleman's family party at my parents' house.

Kenzie always makes great presents!






They're trying to be taller than the other.


We saw some deer on our way to my parents' house. A mom and her baby. They were fun to watch.

The mom jumped the fence and the baby wasn't able to. Kenzie and I were worried they'd be separated forever, but hopefully they were reunited again.

Present time!



Coleman's Birthday!

We had a great time celebrating Coleman turning 11!




Since he was turning 11, he received his Hogwarts letter! 


Then he ran throughout the house collecting everything a young wizard needs to go to Hogwarts:) Kenzie helped set everything up. I think the first stop was Gringotts.

Then he needed some school supplies.

And of course school books.

Jackson sold the books.

All his items on his trolley.

Next, he needed a wand.

This wand chose him.

Admiring the broomstick.

Trying the broomstick out.

Going through Platform 9 3/4 to get on the Hogwarts Express.

Next we went to Chuck E. Cheese.

Then played Harry Potter Headbands.


He got this ball at Chuck E. Cheese.

Then he played some video games.

We sang him happy birthday.




He also wanted to go minigolfing, but since it was a bit rainy we decided to wait until another day to do it.
