Friday Faves

Happy Friday!  I hope you've had a good week and that your Summer is off to a good start.  Our kids are done with the school year and we're excited for some fun months ahead.  The best parts of our week were:

1. Olive's Pastel Party

We spent a good chunk of the week doing all the birthday things for the birthday girl!  Her party was such a fun celebration.  You can read all about the party here and my balloon garland tips here with my favorite balloon pump!

These cute cousins are all 9 for a couple of months!

2. Crochet Club

Olive spent a lot of time crocheting this week!

3.  Book Worm

There's a good chance if you stop by our house, Leo will hand you a book and expect you to sit and read to him.  He's got a stack of favorites and he wants you to name everything he points to.  These are his 3 favorite board books right now.  A search and find Momo (dog) book, the sequel and a transportation board book.  Here are my Amazon links to them:

 

4. Party with Kevin's family

We got to celebrate Olive with Kevin's family, too.  The kids loved hanging out with Daisy the dog and had a fun night together. 

5. Jordan Bakery Box

These SUPER Chocolate Chip Cookies have been a fun addition to my cookie menu.  I've made them several times this week.

6. Flowers are Blooming

All of my flower pots are filling in so nicely!  They look beautiful!

7. Hammock Hang Outs

Olive got a hammock for her birthday.  It's been lots of fun for all the kids.  It fits perfectly inside of our climbing dome!  It has worked for one, two or three kids to play in at once.  It's on sale right now so I ordered a 2nd one for a surprise one day this Summer.  Here's my Amazon affiliate link to it:

 

8. Kids on Campus

We went to work with Kevin one morning and had fun strolling around campus.  The kids love to talk about going to college with Dad one day so we'll have to wait and see if that comes true.

9. Mini Golf

Kevin sometimes takes the big kids on adventures on the weekends while Leo naps.  It's a win win for everyone.  I get work done while Leo naps and the big kids get to do fun things with Kevin.  They practiced their golfing, snacking and claw machine skills together.

 

10. Berry Lemonade

We've been experimenting with yummy lemonade combinations.  We've muddled fresh strawberries and blackberries in the bottom of our cups and then added in our favorite lemonade + ice.  It's the perfect summer drink!

Happy weekend!!  See you back here on Monday :)
