That night we let them sleep outside on the trampoline. Jack came inside before he fell asleep. I slept with Max and Mer for a portion of the night but every time someone turned or rolled over the whole tramp would bounce, so I gave up at 3 am and came inside. Of course they had the time of their life and "didn't feel any of the bouncing"
Jack doesn't look so tough in this picture but he loves to dress up lately and this day Meredith pulled out all the girl dress ups and styled the boys.
Of course each of these looks had superhero names associated with them. Jack and especially Luke are really enjoying having the big kids home all day.
And this is Meredith. I remember when those purple pants came down almost to her ankles.
Jack came up with the craft for FHE. It is a paper squid. We had a little debate about whether it was a squid or an octopus and decided we should it a "Squoctopus".
Here's a favorite pastime. But it doesn't beat our almost daily trips to the swimming pool across the street. Thank you Stacey family!
I realized that I neglected to mention Mer's first piano recital in my last post. She did great!! She was super nervous but she really played well. She will tell you that she messed up too many times. But there were only a couple of minor note errors. She had fun I think. Enough so to not complain about taking piano lessons or having to practice. This was the only shot I got from the day.
Happy summer to you all.
