Summer Break week 5

Week 5 is done...
i can't believe it.
July ended and August has begun.
*see week 4 here*

Thursday
we stayed home for the morning as i got the house ready for our guests.
Dan's sister and the family were coming to visit for a week.

we watched some Good Mythical Morning and the kids got inspired.

See the inspirational video below:

Then we went to the boardwalk.


Friday
finished getting the house ready
and moved a chair outside that i've been wanting out of my bedroom.
it's currently a reading chair outside until it gets gross.
later that evening our guests arrived.

Saturday
the kids wanted to show their cousins the boardwalk.
it was unattached so we got creative getting to it.


dan set up a giant swing


and we had a bbq with family and friends.

Sunday
church
hiking at Limberlost



and prepping for our camping trip.

Monday
the boy turned 9!
it was his birthday and we headed up to a favorite place.
Killarney Provincial Park.
