June (Part 2)

Picking up with the rest of the pieces of June (part one here)....
When I saw that the Airport was hosting a yoga day with free classes I jumped on the chance to go... 
I had NO idea what to expect but it was beautiful. The class was a restorative class that I could have spent a couple more hours doing!
I cracked up because they actually bussed us through onto the tarmac so we wouldn't have to go through security.  It felt like some weird time at camp or something.
I brought (dragged) my mom along for the fun!
And made her put on the free hat (to go along with all the other swag) for the picture.  We both really enjoyed our field trip! 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We got to attend a few friend's birthday parties including a sweet luau.
Shiloh explaining to the birthday girl about her card.
Despite them only being a month or so apart, I would say there is a slight height difference.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Another wet birthday party that Ezra was all about!
Trying to get a little friend picture proved to be a little challenging!
But I tried!
Sweet Princess Piper!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a busy Sunday where we then headed across town to a Steal Hands event where Beach was promoting and selling his coffee.  
We came for the duck fat fries and fun!
Love this amazing place and our partnership with them! 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When one of my kids grabs my phone and takes a picture of an ordinary regular moment that I want to keep, as it represents countless times around my parent's table as a family!  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Boy and Loveland pickup!
These boys were so adorable, "Let's just sit here and drink our coffee."
So of course I had to take a picture!
After some play it was off to the library for some space fun and UV beads. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Staff training....
Checking out the coffee and training on the roasting end of the business.
I so love our staff and there passion to learn more!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Another coffee date at the park with my love while his sisters are at VBS... 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I had a coupon for a treat, the kids were thrilled to get to go on a spontaneous date. 
That night it was the showcase from the arts week at VBS.
Zoe had a guitar and a Stomp and Beat class performance. 
Rhythm sticks with Shiloh with the whole crew on stage. 
Then Shiloh showed off all her hard work from the week. 
That was one way to start a summer full of fun!

June (Part 1)

There were so many sweet memories captured in June, my favorite having to be our week at the beach. Here are the other little moments from the month. 
I truly treasured the last few days of just having Ezra to myself before his sisters got out of school. After nap snuggles are always a win.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A surprise visit to see friends, while the mommas work out!  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then some time together exploring the park...
Supper cheesy smile while wearing his t-shirt from when his dad was a boy. 
We loved spotting the beautiful flowers and lily pads!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Each year we try to make the summer reading kickoff at the library...
Space is this year's theme.
Events are always better with friends.
 A mobile climbing wall - check!
The girls are especially into getting to the top!
Firetruck fun included as well...

Everyone wants a picture in the truck!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My last solo date together with my little man for this school year!
Working on the primary colors today at the art museum.
Ezra really enjoyed this painting activity (he doesn't always care for the art making piece of the program).
He learned about blending colors as well.
End results!
And a trip to Jason's deli to top it off!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I had to include this....when I hug my sister Lauren, this is almost always her response to my rough hugs.  I happened to snap a picture this time for records sake!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I call my Zoe a little birdie when she perches on items like this.  This time it was on the foot of my bed where I found her reading.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bug puppet show at the library.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It feels like a never ending task of renovating the basement.  Getting closer, though, and getting those walls painted!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
June is the time where we VBS...

This year all the kids were able to go to Riverland Hills and they greatly enjoyed it!
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6-week workout program complete.
Thanks in part to my little Shiloh.  She has insisted that she wants to be in charge of making dinner on Wednesdays.  So she made me a large salad and mac and cheese with fruits and vegges for the kids.  Allowing her  independent self to soar!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The kids and I went on a run/walk on a cooler night after a storm came through and found some fun things along the way.

We found where a huge tree had been knocked down!
The love of an open field to just run!
Filling up the memory tank with the rest of June still to come!
